You can reach the clip from the engine bay easily if you go from above and behind the motor, just saw it today it made the unplug so much easier everyone! Especially if you are using ramps and can’t get in that far, still need to crawl to unscrew the part which is easy
Just subscribed, and also just got my box and I’m excited to see your vids about the xB, you already helped me with the oil change and spark plugs, I just got the p0420 code and wonder if I should change the sensors or cat. Great vida man.
Thanks, I'm doing this today on my 2006 Scion xB, white, looks like the cousin to yours. I purchased new in May 2006 3 months before my daughter was born. Now she's a freshman in HS! Think I'll give this to her in a year or two. ;)
Mine 2006 Xb. Red. Got it when my Son was born. He drove it to learn to drive. Now he’s in college and I’m restoring it piece by piece. Best cheapest car I’ve ever owned.
I just did mine yesterday. 2006. Xb. I sprayed it with penetrating oil for 2 weeks prior to removal. Snowbelt car. It was a bear. Got it done. Car ran amazing afterwards. Now today I’m doing the Rear one. 🙏 lol My Red XB has always been a lemon. The injector seals failed before 50K. Other problems too. In 2023 it has 113,000 miles. I’m trying to fix that crazy problem of the 3 lights that come on. Engine Light, Trac Light, and another one can’t remember. Only ones on when it’s raining. Hopefully the O2 sensors fix it. Light is not on now. Drove me crazy for years. I thought it could have been some sort of engine grounding problem.
Don't guess what the check engine light means, just get the code read. No sense throwing parts at it. If you need a good code ready I've done about four videos on how they work and where to get one. Good luck and thanks for watching.
@@ExtremeDailyDrivers. There is no specific Code for it other than P0138 and P0139. So I just got done installing the aft one. Thank God for the O2 sensor kit I bought on Amazon for $32. I was smacking that low profile socket with the sledgehammer under the car. Finally ! It loosened after about 8 hits. It’s the original. lol. Will see how it works. I can’t wait to take it on some trips. My mileage has been about 24 mpg and I’m hoping I can get at least 30-32 out of it. It’s an automatic. Are there any catalytic Converters out there that simply bolt on- instead of welding ?
@@ExtremeDailyDriversjust an update. I replaced both O2 sensors on my 2006 Scion XB and my mileage has increased 3.56 miles per gallon in stop and go city driving. I can’t wait to see what my highway mileage will increase to 🙌
Dude it's awesome haha w ur fixing ur toaster. I also have a xb but I call mine a shoe box. Lol anyways I live ur videos because I learn so much from ur work. I apply it to my xb. Can't wait for next Tuesday!!! 5x👍
Dang dude, you make it look super easy. My box is at 150k right now so no biggie but no doubt will have to replace it at some point cause I'm keeping my box as long as possible. Looking forward to your unboxing of those four mysterious boxes you have in your garage!
The hardest part is getting a lowered xB off the ground! And I got lucky with how easy it was to loosen that O2 sensor. The new wheels are awesome! See you next week!
Missed you last week. I wound up paying $300 to get mine replaced. Glad your back. Yep, the more muscle you make the harder it is to get under your low riding box. That means you're gonna have to stop working out and getting huge...NOT! ;)
Hi I have a 2004 scion xb she has 247,000 miles on her, and just recently have these lights turn on! Now I know what to replace thanks for sharing! Now I have a question I’m having a problem with my back right brake light. I replaced all fuses the light bulbs and also the brake light wiring switch! Still Isn’t working! What should I try next? I would appreciate any help you can give me! Thanks
@@ExtremeDailyDrivers your welcome I use to run motegi wheels but they bent on me after doing some doughnuts in the snow lol but I made the switch because of of light the konig wheels were compared to the motegi wheels
I can't believe how light the Konig wheels are. They have to be close to 10lbs lighter than my previous wheels. I'm going to weigh them in the next video.
@@ExtremeDailyDrivers awesome I can't wait my konig wheels are 16 pounds vs the motegi at 24 pounds each haha and on my Focus rs the factory wheels were 29pounds each and the konig wheels are 19.5 pounds each
You need to have you codes read before you do anything and go from there. If you are getting the same code I did, then change the one in the video. Thanks for watching.
What model year is this Scion xB? I saw another video for a 2006 (I think) and the center console needed to be removed to access the connector. Mine is a 2011 so I'm hoping it's similar to yours.
Quick question when you got the p0420 code , was it p0420 "catalyst efficiency below threshold bank 1" ? Thats the code im getting and im also thinking its my o2 sensor
@@ExtremeDailyDrivers Thanks for the advice currently in Arkansas when I get home I'm gonna give that a try. I recently replaced the transmission and engine with AJDM unit( JDM Orlando). When I did the swap I replace the injectors plugs and coils.
So I org. came here to see about replacing both sensors, but did you come up with just the code or did you smell some exhaust leak. I am looking for a new mechanic, but my FIL never did find a hole in the exhaust.
My car was throwing a code. My OBD2 scanner told me the symptoms that caused the code. After a process of elimination, I narrowed it down to the o2 sensor. So I replaced it. And now the code is gone.
The rear (downstream) sensor has the electrical plug connection below the shifter console. The front sensor's electrical connector clip is under the vehicle.
I'm pretty sure it's mentioned in the video, if not, check out the video I did on how to clear and engine code. It's definitely in there. Thanks for watching.
My RS8 is now at 212k and Im not getting any crazy lights or codes. This is probably unnecessary but should i replace my o2 sensor anyway or just leave it be until I get those codes? Thanks for the help!
Just bought 2006 xb the check engine light is on sometimes.What was the part number for the O2 bank 1 sensor .The code says my bank one is not effiecent
I'm a female trying to locate the bank one sensor 2. Changing its easy it looks. It is locating it. And I just have a jack. Will I be okay to get that switched with just a jack holding that side of the car up long enough to do it.
Those o2 sockets are usually junk. If you’re not reusing the old sensor? It’s often easier to just cut the wire and use a regular deep socket or boxed end wrench.
@@ExtremeDailyDrivers I had to edit my comment. It should have read o2 sockets! They typically expand instead of grip. Also, the connector is easy to reach topside if your air box is gone, unless you’re shorty short🤣
My 2006 Scion has 137k miles. I was due an emmision test. I went today and got code p0420. Ofcourse my three party lights are on. Trac off CEL and VSC. Ill try this sensor fix.
What year is your XB? I'm getting that Code as well Replaced the spark plugs and code shows up and after a day or 2 it clears it has happen twice 🤔 Thanks for the video It was really helpful
Sorry to dispute your explanation but p0420 is definitely not usually the 02 sensor. If you get that catalyst efficiency code that means just the opposite it is in fact doing its job.
Quote..."Is it as good as the OEM sensor?....no". Ahh....., let me offer a counter-point. How do you know? A lot of folks say this...and pick it up and repeat it.... without any real proof of detail design or manufacturing differences being noted. Often OEM parts are better, but when it comes to these sensors...I'm not so sure. Don't just flatly say "no, it's not as good". I bought a NON OEM downstream sensor that is guaranteed for 10 yrs....much longer than the warranty of the OEM.....
Getting error code C1201 on my scion. Which is possible 02 sensor malfunction…It’s been getting horrible gas mileage. How much would replacing 02 sensor help?
