P0139..Just the o2 sensor or warning of cat going out?
I'm getting a 'pending fault' of 'O2 Sensor Circuit Slow Response' (B1S1) and I'm concerned that it could be a warning sign of the catalytic converter going out. Reason I say this is because this CEL code appeared immediately after I replaced the upstream sensor (P0135 'O2 Sensor Heater Circuit' code popped up). It usually goes away after a few days but will pop up randomly mostly at any sign of "aggressive" driving (e.g.- 4k+ RPMS https://www.s2ki.com/s2000/public/st...t/rolleyes.gif).
So is it just a coincidence that the secondary sensor has gone out right after the primary or could I possibly have some other issues going on? Thanks |
If the CEL appeared right after doing work "X" on the car go back and check work "X". General rule for mechanics. Double check the prior work first.

I would say second o2 sensor was already bad but since the first and second deteriorated and we're not as sensitive as new. I would go ahead and replace the secondary one.
