Description
TRQ oxygen sensors are manufactured to precise specifications using premium raw materials to optimize your vehicle’s emission system. Each sensor is isostatically-pressed for improved strength and durability, and plasma-sprayed to improve sensitivity and prolong the service life of the sensors. Oxygen sensors wear out over time and should be replaced every 60,000 miles to prevent poor engine performance. TRQ recommends replacing the oxygen sensors in sets to optimize fuel economy and reduce overall emissions. All products are fit and road-tested in our Massachusetts R&D facility to ensure we deliver on our promise of Trusted Reliable Quality.

Hi, I'm Don from 1A Auto. I hope this how-to video helps you out, and next time you need parts for your vehicle, think of 1AAuto.com. Thanks.
In this video, we're going to show you how to replace the downstream O2 sensor on this 2001 Volkswagen Beetle. It's the same part and similar process on these Beetles from 2001 to 2005. The items you'll need for this are a new downstream O2 sensor from 1AAuto.com, a 10 millimeter socket and ratchet, a flat blade screwdriver, a 7/8 inch wrench, and jack and jack stands.
Raise your vehicle. Your downstream O2 sensor is located right here and the harnesses are inside this box. You just have to remove these two 10 millimeter nuts to get inside. Inside here, you'll see both of your O2 sensor harnesses. Just pull them free from those brackets. Then, insert a flat blade screwdriver into the slot on the top of the harness, and pry it out, and disconnect, and then pull the harness from these clips. Using a 7/8 inch wrench, just loosen up and remove the O2 sensor.
On the left, is the old O2 sensor; on the right, is the new one from 1A Auto. You can see they're identical and they'll fit exactly the same. Insert your new O2 sensor and twist it into place. Tighten it up with your 7/8 inch wrench. Reclip the harness. Then reconnect it. Push both the harnesses back into the brackets. Push the box back onto the studs and then replace those two 10 millimeter nuts. Then you're all set.
