In the US, based on YouTube, they all got great feedback after use CataClean bottles. After all, they got annually car inspection, based on certain states, and this CataClean work the effect. Just here, it priced at above rm150 in average and more pricier if Diesel engine

there are 2 sets of O2 sensors for my car, the no 1 is easy cz just beside the engine. I already had the sockets to open the O2 sensor, so now waiting for the delivery of it. The No. 2 is behind or below the engine, might as well send it to a nearby workshop for installation.

SC, not just at much2 premium price, but needs to order and takes 2 weeks for delivery. This for my nearby Honda SC

Now that quite some time has passed, mind sharing if o2 sensor change indeed fixed the FC issue ?

yup in my case, able to return the FC as new back. from bad reading of 8.8km/l (combined city + highway) to now 13.3km/l with similar drive.

For oxygen sensor, how many km do we need to change it? Cuz my old camry acv30 year 2003 already clocked 411 000km plus, the fuel consumption very good

Two stages, if O2 sensor already not functioning, engine light will pop up intermittently or heading bad, permanently. This happened to my office pickup car, Triton with 300+k km, and SC Mitsubishi just put reset via reader, but the issues will return back. Until office guy send outside workshop and put new sensor, no more engine light pop.

On my car, since use it since new, kinda knows on what the FC average I get per refuel, and when passing 200k km, the FC kinda went worst. Done the normal EO change, atf oil, fuel filter, spark plugs but FC remain the same and not as new. Until change this O2 (my car had 2 of it), the FC restore back. Surprisingly able to hit 17km/l from JB - Kajang on meter, but at 110-120kmh consistent drive, quite tiring

Okey, at least if engine light pop up i dont panic as it is indicator of the oxygen sensor, if so i will scan it first to detect the main issue, surprisingly my acv30 2.0e camry fc still good so nothing to worry about at the moment, but always be ready 😏🔥
