Another great video! A small tip for others performing this repair you can actually unbolt and scoot the steering rack towards the front of vehicle a couple of inches for more room without harming anything. A lot of guys will do that when actually upgrading the downpipes to catless.

Thanks for your time buy sharing the video

Hi, thanks for the video. if I researched correctly there are total of 4 sensors. I am assuming you replaced 2 sensors that are pre-cat , right? At what point do we need to replace the post cat , do you have a video for those as well?

@Cdswjp

it appears yes. i believe sensor 1 refers to pre-cat (aka. upstream, primary) and sensor 2 refers to post-cat

@rnwistnraksnrr3521

Sensors 2 are post cats and only throw codes they do not affect AFR(air fuel ratio) which is why if you have a tune they automatically(jb4) cancel bank 2 sensors because they are useless besides emissions

Are they both same not same product ? Can the cheaper one - Bosch 17098- be used in both location ?

I'm at 72k so I probably don't need to swap mine out yet but figure I might as well do it when I do dp's soon since I hate pulling that damn panel off the bottom lol. Good vid my man thanks!

I have an n52 motor I believe the downstream o2 sensors are located in the same spot as the n54. My question was being that the downstream o2 sensors are close together is it possible to screw them into the wrong pipes? I know u cant mess up the connectors as they are different.

Excellent! Just change mine and my car drives beautifully thanks!

Do you need special tool for any of the 4 sensors?

Did you mean to put music over the part where your taking the engine cover off, I can't hear what your saying

I just want to be clear, bank 2 sensor 1 can be removed from underneath the car ? I stripped the second screw from the metal plate cover and I can’t get a good angle from the top so I’m wondering if going under the car will give me a better view / grip so I can try to unscrew it

My E60 2008 535xi shows 002C7E and 002C9F aftercut O2 sensor trim control Bank 1 , Aftercut O2 sensor heater input signal, the car feels lik spending much fuel (5km/L) and it doesn't feel smooth and there's light blue smoke from time to time with the oil burning smell but not always just from time to time usually when I drive little bit hard when I'm in a rush , can you guide me to the possible issues ?

Great DIY as always!

So my bank 2 is running rich at around 24+. How do I know whether it’s pre or post cat??

Is jacking the car really required? This seems different from the N51 that I have and I was thinking they would be similar but I don't think that's the case. Most videos show the N51 being replaced from the top and it appears to be in a very different location from N54. Great video as always though.

Know where I can get all 4 02 sensors pre-cat & post-cat thanks

How can I test to see if my o2 sensors are bad? Is there someway I could private message you to see if you have an idea on my N54?

I get a p0420 circuit to low bank 1 also p0430 circuit to low bank 2, but it don't say sensor 1 or 2. Could this be cat related

i changed my valve cover gasket a few weeks ago and cross switch my o2 sensors by mistake when I plugged them back in. the car ran like crap, would shake like a stripper on start up then I realized what I had done after doing some trouble shooting. problem went away but I still have the SES light. My friend reset and it came back on when I cut the car off and started it back up. I didn't have the light before my screw up. is there anyway to keep it off or do I have to get new sensors?
