I thought this thread would be "interesting" to update for a couple of reasons.

First, this particular code has never returned since replacing this particular O2 sensor with a new Bosch sensor. Also, the third O2 sensor has not thrown a code since cleaning the contacts.

Second, it is just about a year since I replaced the temperature sender for the temp gauge. After replacing it with an OEM sender from Subaru, the temp gauge has operated normally for a year. The pictures posted are from the recent heat wave. I drove the car for over 20 minutes in 104F heat. The gauge never moved. So CLEARLY, the temp sender was the reason for the LOW gauge readings.




A recent thread about wheel bearings and rear differentials reminded me of a few things. The man who goes by dcarrb is uncanny in his ability to diagnose the REAL problem, svxfiles is a wealth of information, people who say "mine did the same exact thing" can't always be trusted because SOME people rush to make such statements without taking the time to make sure it is really EXACTLY the same, statements like "It's not just a river in Egypt" doesn't help guide people down a rational path and Trevor was a voice of reason.
