Re: Check motor light

Without any more info, I'll have to agree with Mike H. MOst of these
are oxygen sensors, which are recommended for replacement at 60-70,000
miles. Don't assume this until you check out the codes,though. The
light came on when my head gasket went. There should be two sensors one
in front of the catalytic converter and one in back of it. NOrmally
when one or both of these go, the engine idles a little rough.

If you are so inclined, you can replace them yourself. They bolt into
the exhaust pipe with two bolts each. The OEM versions sell online for
about $100 each for the Bosch and $140 each for the Nippon Denso.
