05 Elantra GLS, where are O2 sensors located

May 23, 2009 2 Replies

My Son's car has a O2 sensor error (according to Advanced Auto) and we don't have a shop manual, looked online for a IPB or other and can't seem to find clear information.



Anyone know the specific location of the two sensors and able to give a good enough description that a blind man could find them?



Thanks



One is in the (top of, I think) exhaust manifold and the other is just behind the flex pipe in front of the rear converter.

We opened the hood and I was amazed, so dang easy it wasn't funny. All I=20 had to do was remove the heat shield (4 bolts) and I was able to use a=20

22mm wrench to losen and remove the sensor - the bad thing is that none=20 of the auto-parts places have the 5 wire version, dealer had 2 and they=20 cost $130 for the top sensor (before the Cat Conv) - installed it, went=20 to Advanced Auto to reset the code, and it's worked fine since, even=20 getting better MPG...

As a side note, the dealer would not reset the code unless we paid $98=20 for the service, but Advanced Auto will check/reset codes for free.
