Hey Guys:
My car showed check engine sign till last week and i went to autozone to findout and they told me it was oxygen cylinder and they told me it wasnt big deal and can change it any time. but after two days my check engine sign was gone Smile
Is it ok now to not to change my cylinder?

Comments: Autozone is a parts store and nice that they frequently do free code readings but are not necessarily mechanics at all. O2 sensors can be a nightmare to change and this car may have four! Everyone does it but parts stores are there to sell parts and really shouldn't be suggesting what or how to fix something. Telling you it's easy is nuts! Some of those you have to remove the interior carpet just to unplug them, heat the pipe or exhaust part (to remove) it's in and perhaps have to rethread it or a new one won't go in! The scan should have pin pointed which one if not you need a better scan. O2 sensors can also set a code for an engine that isn't running properly for a variety of reasons. Ultimately it's you who should decide what parts you need.

As for noise in rear don't wait and check out the brakes and bearings + while at it check the wheels and tires. Calling it "screechy" suggests a brake problem but check it all out while there,
