DID YOU?

WHAT WAS THE CODE NUMBER?

DID YOU KNOW THAT MOST POPULAR AUTO PARTS STORES WILL CHECK YOUR CODES FOR FREE?

LOOKIN' FOR A CHEAPER ROUTE, OTHER THAN THE STEALERSHIP TO PERFORM THE TASK?

WOW, Thanks for that answer. I did not know that they certainly stole 150 bucks from me. So what should the replacement labor cost for a rear O2 Censor be. They did not tell me the Code number, I will ask them tomorrow. This is an infiniti Q45- 1999 Model year.

WELL................

STILL GOT THE LIGHT ON?

TRY THE AUTO PARTS STORE FOR YOUR CODE

EXPLORE YOUR NEW FOUND KNOWLEDGE!

ASK THE MATURE LOOKING, BEEN AROUND A WHILE FELLER AT THE PARTS STORE (LIKE THE MANAGER) WHO MIGHT PERFORM THE TASK INEXPENSIVELY?

MIGHT BE THAT ONE OF THE EMPLOYEES CAN DO IT

ANOTHER SOURCE TO PERFORM WORK OR COLLECT INFO IS "THEM FELLERS" AT THE SMALL "MA AND POP" SELF SERVICE AUTO SALVAGE YARD---SOMETIMES THEY PERFORM REPAIR TASKS---THE OWNER WOULD MOST CERTAINLY KNOW A "DEPENDABLE SMALL TIME LITTLE SHOP" WHO DOES GOOD WORK AT REASONABLE RATES......HE WOULD MOST LIKELY ALSO KNOW WHO YOU NEED TO STAY AWAY FROM!

THE ACTUAL "TASK" THAT "YOU PRESENT NOW", THAT NEEDS TO BE DONE IS:

OBTAIN ONE OF THESE (AFTER YOUR "KNIGHT" TELLS YOU WHAT TO GET)

http://www.autozone.com/autozone/parts/1999-Infiniti-Q45/Oxygen-Sensor/_/N-jd8xdZ8gcvp?filterByKeyWord=o2+sensor&fromString=search

INSTALLATION IS ABOUT LIKE CHANGIN' A SPARK PLUG---'CEPT MAYBE HARDER TO GET TO!.....SURELY THE "LABOR END" WOULD NOT BE MORE THAN $50 AT THE LITTLE FELLER...MOST LIKELY LESS!

I BEEN DIYing FOREVER---MY SPECIALTY IS JEEP CJs--THAT'S WHAT I DRIVE--NEVER NOTHIN' ELSE SINCE I'VE BEEN DRIVING (1981)
