it has been getting poor gas milage and sometimes stutters at a stop light in drive. i've ordered an o2 sensor for before the catalytic converter. looks like most of this could have been caused by a faulty one. any idea if i am diagnosing it wrong. it is going in tomorrow to get the o2 sensor changed, so if you can reply asap, it would be great. Thanks a lot.

check engine light on for a year is noooo good , i would start by replacing the 02 you have a code for and the misfires may go away but maybe not , the vw's have coil issues also , but start with what you know is bad the 02 sensor and maybe a maint tune up since its been running like that so long
what would you suggest for a tune-up? Plugs? I don't really know what else, air filter just was changed along with oil. It hasn't had the timing belt changed, or that I know of, (I've owned since 65,000 miles and it is at 89,000 now). Any idea on the labor of a timing belt? anything you can give me here is much beneficial. thanks
the 02 for starters , then plus and wires , you might want to check the manual on the t belt i think its at 90k and im not sure on the labor , but def what i listed first ,in that order ,and then reset the pcm and drive it for a while and see hwat happens , atleast you can do those repairs on your own and same chunks of cheese
i replaced the o2 sensor, and has been running for over 2 weeks with no codes and good gas mileage. i guess that solved the problem. thanks
