o2 replaced but still throws code??

Any ideas? The CEL comes on as you start the car.. as in.. it's ALWAYS on (not off, then comes on a second after you start the car) I replaced it, but the new one does the exact same thing. The threads were a little torn up, but it goes in all the way, I don't hear an exhaust leak or anything..

any ideas?

give it about 50 miles or so.. the 02 sensor needs to adjust, and so does your computer.

i torque'd that motha down and it worked fine after that.

I think the threads are fucked up from taking the original out.. and it was hard to get the replacement in.

$32 from autozone.. bosch is good, right? (my friend used his discount..)

What code are you getting? Could you have another fault and don't know it?
