1998 Honda Accord Sign In
A local repair shop told me today the reason my SES light is on is because both my upper and lower oxygen sensors need to be replaced. They want a total of $360.00 for the job (parts and labor). How hard is this to do? I use a mobile mechanic from time to time. I checked advanced Auto. I can buy both sensors myself for about 140 bucks I think. Are these things hard to install? Can I save myself a little money by having my mobile mechanic do it?

What do you recommend? TIA for any replies.

Re: 1998 Honda Accord Sign In
No, you don't need both sensors
What are the exact code numbers being set?

They did not say Hammer. I had some other work done and this is what they told me over the phone. I will pick the car up tomorrow. Maybe, I could ask them. My SES light is on. Is this more of an environmental thing?

I can't tell you anything until you get me those code numbers but I can tell you than any shop that tells you all your 0/2 sensors are bad doesn't know what he is doing.
