It is no offense to him, but it is why I was asking for more details. IMO not enough information. Besides those checks weren't the end all be all... they were called a good place to start.
In conjunction with others I do know, having gleAned what was originally posted. -----

“A month ago I got CE light on, had it checked and it came up knock sensor and 02 sensor 3 I believe (it's the 02 senor on the exhaust pipe after the engine), both were replaced at the Subaru Dealer. Anyway, after a week CE came back on, I took it back and he cleared the CE a week later it came back. I then left my car with them as I went on a holiday for two weeks with instruction to fix everything they could find wrong. Over $2000.00 later I picked up my car all was perfect...for 9 days and once again CE light same 02 senor. I'm thinking I have a defective 02 sensor,”
