Default Need some help with an Oxygen Sensor

Hi guys,

I have a 2003 RSX-Type S


My CEL just recently came on and when I took it to AutoZone, they said I needed to replace the oxygen sensor in bank one. I think the code was P0134. They recommended the Bosch 13680 sensor.

Some questions:

1) Is the Bosch sensor a good replacement or I heard the Denso one was better
2) Where exactly is the sensor I need to replace. Pictures?
3) any special instructions in replacing the sensor. is it easy to do myself?

Thanks for the help guys
Craig

are you sure its an O2 sensor? cause i had the same problem changed the first sensor which was supposedly "bad" with a new bosch sensor, so after i changed it my car was worse untill i found out it was not the O2 sensor it turned out to be the air flow sensor i think it called, it goes on the headers i believe, anyways i thought i just give you a heads up on that as i had to go thru it i have an 02 RSX type S myself

I had this code about 4 months back. I reset the ecu and it never came back. Dramatic weather changes can trigger the code I've heard.
