2000 Camry V-6 LE...I need to replace an O2 sensor (or an A/F sensor - whatever) on Bank 1 Sensor 1...

How do I determine if my car is a California emissions car...it does have a Cali sticker up under the hood, but is there a definitive way...maybe by the VIN?

as long as it is the stock hood it will be listed next to the vaccum diagram under the hood. you can also look for the precat on each bank of the y-pipe.

I entered my VIN and saw this

MCV10L-CEPNKA 199607 1MZFE LE SED ATM NAP

Does anything here mean FED or CALI ?

Thanks again.

nope it doesn't

you should have a sticker under hood stating the engine model, intake & exhaust valve clearances and emission specs compliance (if there is no word "California" then it's federal).
