Well I think the O2 sensor bug finally bit. Last night My check engine light came on. I checked the gas cap and removed the neg battery cable. The light remained off for about 10 miles then came on again. I will swing into auto zone and pull the code. 115K and this is the first time the CEL has came on.

Hopefully you just need a new gas cap.

Well I had a feeling. P0135 bank 1 sensor 1 . I will order one for each side I found Denso sensors for 66.57 each. Has anyone found a better price ?

That's a pretty good price for a Denso.

The price on those Denso sensors sounds like they could be the "universal" type. While I haven't had to replace mine yet (knock on wood), I think many forum contributors recommend the exact fit type. Do a little checking and decide for yourself.

If they are not Denso's they will pay the return shipping.

That is the correct vehicle-specific part number (not universal), and that is a damned good price. I'll have to remember amazon next time. Go for it.
