O2 Sensor 89,000 miles

Hi,

Wondering if you guys have any comments about my very cryptic information below.

SES light came on, brought car to dealer, dealer read o2 code, dealer reset SES light, drove car 100 miles, light came back on, waited for two more weeks for dealer to get o2 sensor, light goes out on its own after about 200 miles before replacing o2 sensor.

Should the o2 sensor be replaced?

Thanks in advance!

Yes. I'm amazed you got 89K miles out of the original.

Thanks for the responses. Dave, do you sell them? If so could you let me know how much?
Maybe my question should be are the hard to replace? Right now after it's all said and done I'm looking at something like $150 for an O2 sensor...

Thanks

Dave can hook you up. You'll need to pull the code so you can figure out which O2 sensor went bad. And you'll need to have your ECM reprogrammed when your O2 sensor is replaced.
