I wasnt paying him to change the sensor, i was paying him so that he could check if it was actually the sensor or if it was something else
Which he couldnt do right

O2 sensor codes are almost always fuel trim issues, O2 sensors very rarely have issues. You probably have a vacuum leak, MAF sensor or a fuel pump issue, but the only way to find out is if some dude actually fucking knows what they're doing.
