    Does anyone have instructions on how to replace the downstream O2 sensor?
    This is the one after the cat.
    TIA

    I was able to download the diagnostic/install PDFs

    It's easy... There's youtube videos on it too... The plug is under the carpet close to to dash on left side of front passenger seat. I think I usually use a big 7/8" box wrench and count the number of turns so I can pre twist the new cable/wires so once it's screwed in the wires are no longer twisted but straight.

    Thanks. I did find this specifically for the 2011
    However I ended up paying a mobile mechanic $100 to install the new sensor

    Denso also sells it as the 234-4400, which you can likely obtain for much less.
