Little advice please - My replacement o2 sensor has just arrived and I'm planning to take the car to the garage to get it fitted.

Does anyone have a clue how long it would take to remove the old and fit the new.

I'm thinking it can only be a 30 minute job, but just wanted to check with people on here first

I don't want the garage taking the piss and trying to charge me for a couple of hours labour

Cheers

 

It's more like 5-10 min if they have a drive on ramp. There is one easy to access wiring clip around the gearbox, once that is unclipped the sensor itself is a cracked loose with a 24mm spanner then undone by hand. Fitting is the reverse of that.


Anything more than 1/2 Hour labour would be unfair.
