I have a 96' ti and I need to replace an oxygen sensor. I looked at advance auto and they only show the upstream sensor. Even on the BOSCH website it shows only an upstream sensor. I thought that 96' and up were OBD II. Can anyone tell me which it is? Thanks. | | | 10-25-2007, 11:34 PM | #2 | NOBODY F's with the Jesus Join Date: Oct 2006 Location: Ventura California Posts: 7,824 | if it's a 96 it should be an OBDII. Perhaps if it was an early build date 96, it might be an OBDI, but I doubt it. Look under the car, if it has 2 o2 sensors, it's an OBDII. AFAIK, All m44's were OBDII and you could also try typing your VIN in on realoem.com __________________ 4 MORE YEARS BABY!!! | | | 10-26-2007, 06:36 AM | #3 | Senior Member Join Date: Aug 2004 Location: state college, pa Posts: 3,431 | Look for the port under the driver's side of your dash. It's a small rectangular box with a 1/4 turn screw. I believe there's a group buy for o2 sensors currently running. __________________ I scream, you scream, we all scream for ZOMBIES. | | | 10-26-2007, 08:26 PM | #4 | Senior Member Join Date: Nov 2006 Location: Land of the Vikings Posts: 2,700 | if the car is EWS equipped , then its a obd 2 __________________ Vin Number decode and Retrofit Pdfs Available Free !

European emissions and equipment is different from US equipped cars. | | | | Currently Active Users Viewing This Thread: 1 (0 members and 1 guests) | | Posting Rules | You may not post new threads You may not post replies You may not post attachments You may not edit your posts HTML code is Off | | | |
