I'd buy it for that price.

Probably too complicated for you.

On these vehicles, 2 are required before the catalytic convertor. Reason for 2 is because there are 2 engine banks which both create their own exhaust gases. (V6) Picture each leg of the letter V as a bank. And the reason they are required before the catalytic convertor is because the convertor will interfere with the oxygen reading, in return affecting the A/F ratio/.


The number of sensors you need to replace will depend on the SES code(s) you retrieved.


Also, it's O2 sensor, not OS sensor.

Yes, both front sensors are the same (3 wires) and the rear one(behind the cat) is 4 wires.

I had to replace only one sensor but I decided to replace all so I bought them on ebay. I bought Bosch universals. I think the only Bosch they sell now is the rear one but you can get the NGK for the front , they are even better.
Here is the link to ebay seller I bought from : http://search.stores.ebay.com/GLOBAL...271212QQsofpZ0
