Anyone else find they chew oxygen sensors quickly? I seem to kill one every year I reckon. Idle gets a bit funny and wideband suggests the car is not quickly adjusting between slightly lean/slightly rich at idle.

 

Issue has just come up again and then car three a code for slow O2 sensor response.

 

Car us an FG with X-Force dump. I'm wondering if the sensor is located too close to the turbo exit or something. Wideband sensor doesn't experience the same issue.

 

No big deal as genuine Bosch sensors are only $59 but thought I would ask if anyone else has the same issue.

Yeh it’s fairly common on a aftermarket Dump pipe, I’m throwing sensors at every second one it seems that comes in
