Hmm...well i try going to Motorcrafts website to find the oem part number. It shows two different ones for downstream, and one for upstream. Which one is it??? Here's the part numbers:

RR - DOWNSTREAM - LH - XR3F-9G444AA

FRT - UPSTREAM - XC2F-9F472AA

RR - DOWNSTREAM - RH - 1R3A-9G444AB

Any idea of what these cost at the Ford house (other than an arm and a leg...?)
if it's a rear sensor, then it's a down stream. it just depends on wheather it's the left or right.Ask the place where you gotthe diagnostics test, they should be able to tell you if it's the right or left. Now that i think about it, I believe oreilley's sells motorcraft parts, they're prices are usually lower than the dealership.

You need the downstream, RH (as in passenger side). Upstream is the front O2's, downstream is the rears. Bank 1 is the passenger side and bank 2 is the driver side.

Sounds like you need to replace the rear O2 on the passenger side (downstream, RH)

Well the dealership told me Bank 1 rear sensor. I'm guessing that's drivers side...Er, uh, I don't know which way you look at the car to tell left from right...so which is it? I'll check around for motorcraft parts, too.

No, like I said in the post right before this..........Bank 1 is the passenger side, bank 2 is the driver side.

You need to replace the passenger side rear O2 sensor.

Ok, I found out that if you click on those extremely long part numbers I showed above, it lists the correct part. So, for future reference, here are the correct part numbers in case anyone ever wants them:

DY-1038 - Motorcraft: Rear ; Downstream-Left Hand
DY-1104 - Motorcraft: Rear ; Downstream-Right hand
DY-1039 - Motorcraft: Front ; Upstream

Quick question...why can the front sensors be the same, but require different ones for the back? [>:]

I'm really not sure, but MY guess would be the wires are different length. Don't quote me on that though

I think the driver side one is a little bit shorter, due to clearence issues. I'm not a 100% on that at all though, so dont quote me.

LOL I think we're on the same page Art, haha. I never thought about the wire length, that could be true too.

You need to replace the passenger side rear O2 sensor.
Ok, just to make sure that I am getting this 100% you look at the car from behind (standing at the trunk side of the car, looking forward to the engine side), meaning driver side is LH and passenger side is RH?

Thanks for all your guys help!
