How hard is it to replace 02 sensors in a BMW?

I have a 2003 BMW 330 xi that needs an 02 sensor, can I do it myself?How hard is it to replace 02 sensors in a BMW?call Me www.candrive.com.How hard is it to replace 02 sensors in a BMW?If you don't know the answer is no.How hard is it to replace 02 sensors in a BMW?You'll need a 'crow' style O2 removal tools(http://www.bimmertools.com/product-p/sly… the other socket type won't fit bc the O2 sensor is too long.



There are 4 O2 sensors, 2 pre-cat, 2 post-cat. The pre-cats are right in front of you after removing that top plastic cover. Pretty straight forward.



Replace that little vacuum hose for the air pump valve too. It's most likely be brittle and you'll break it messing with the wiring of the sensor.



The post-cat is a different story. But most likely you'll only need to change only the pre-cat ones, bc the post-cat stays clean and not need to be replaced.
