How do I replace an 02 sensor in my 2000 S-Type

2000 S-Type, 37,890. I had my car scanned at my friendly neighborhood autozone and the scanner came up with a PO133 code. Autozone checked it and said this was an 02 sensor circuit slow response (bank 1 / sensor 1). Can anyone tell me if this is an expensive part? Can I do it myself? And where is it located? Thanks. :Wink:

Sorry about the late response but I am new to this forum. On V8 engines there are a total of 4 oxygen sensors. Bank 1 position 1 is the passenger side of the engine with the oxygen sensor closest to the front of the vehicle. If you stand in front of your vehicle, Bank 1 is to your left (passenger side) and Bank 2 is to your right (driver's side). Autozone and Murray's Discount auto sells good quality Bosch oxygen sensors for about $45 each. However be weary about the codes that the OBD II computers register as these are just basic generic codes and may not pinpoint the specific problem.
