Hey all,
Im throwing code p0153, which tells me circuit slow response (bank 2, sensor 1) Wanted to double check with you guys I tried to reset the car by unplugging the battery and letting it sit for a few and clearing the code, but it comes on after about 2 starts. Does this mean the 02 sensor is on its way out or what thanks everyone?

sounds like the sensor might be on its way out, how many miles do you have on your car?

Yeah I'm pretty sure it is, car has 43k and I have switched out all the sensors everytime with 3 different midpipes soo I have already replaced the leftside

you don't even have that many miles, so first makes sure the harness and the sensor itself is nice and tight before you buy a new one. a loose sensor can sometimes throw that code

Doing that battery thing can only make your car worse by running rough till your car reprograms
itself, and with a bad o-2 sensor, that can't make matters any better.
Make sure you get motorcraft sensors. A bit expensive but they work better in pairs than with the Bosch.
They are roughly $60 for the motorcraft
and about$35 for the Bosch
Replace the sensor. You caould be running you car lean with a lower signal
