First, take it to a nationally recognized parts store like auto zone or advance auto and have them scan the computer again to see if it has the same code. Most stores will do it for free, so there is no money out of pocket. If it is O2 sensor again, take it back to where it was repaired. If it is a new code, let me know what it is and I try my best to guide you in the right direction.

Is it still running good for you?
