Good info I always replace when they get to around 50k or when I believe they could be going bad.

Thanks for the link guys.

I've just passed vehicle inspection and smog test with flying colours. Wouldn't bad Oxygen sensor or bad cat fail the smog test? Also, I only get the error in damp/cold weather when "the conditions" are just right for the error (only 3 times per year).

What's the part number for oxygen sensor and the cost anyone? Might change the bugger anyways.

One of the many venders online sites will get you the part number, may be cheaper to pick one up where you live then shipping from US. I would check connections from o2 sensors since you mention damp conditions, use dielectric grease = I doubt that's it but worth a shot.

Before cat: 99660612800
After cat: 99660613801

If you look an Ebay you can pay between $22.00 up to $154.00 for the after cat ??? And for the ones before $95.00 to $315 !!!! Oem from Sonnen after $229 and before $206…. Imho Denso or Bosch should be good and there are some very good price on Ebay….
