hi. i just got my car back from getting a new flex pipe put on. the mechanic said i have a broken o2 sensor, i think around the cat he said. the old flex pipe had all that mesh wore out, but the car worked fine, just made it a bit more loud.
but since the car has had the new flex pipe, i find it idles rough when at a stop light and seems like it wants to stall a bit, but doesnt. now would this be a direct o2 sensor problem? and why didnt it do this before?

no cel, personally i dont even think there is a light behind the check engine, because it has never come on. definately suspicious. is the o2 sensor hard to change?

Like Redz said, does the "Check Engine" light come on when you turn your ignition to "on". If not then you have either a blown globe or some bad wiring.
Seems like old mate mechanic has broken your O2 sensor............ mad.gif
