Hi all
The above 2 warning lights come up on my dash. I believe the same thing happened nearly 5 years ago after I first bought the NSX, and I believe it was an oxygen sensor back then. I'm assuming its likely to be the oxygen sensor again. Apart from being ripped off by Honda for an oxygen sensor, where else could I source one at a better price?
Cheers

Martin,
You can get generic ones off ebay or NGKs from SOS.
With a generic one is a case of splicing the new one onto the OEM plug. Mind you it can be a pain in the neck of a job, as you can't use penetrating oil, heat can be used, but it can be tricky.
Cheers,
Ary

best bet is to find out what the check engine light and tcs light fault codes are, once you have found them we can decode them and see what the problem is!

Thanks SS. I spoke to him and he said there is a good possibility that it is oxygen sensors, but to be certain, that he would need the car to read the fault codes. At the moment he lives approx 1 hour away from me, so its a bit of a pain bringing the car over just to read the codes.
How do you read codes by the way? Is this something I could do?

Or about 18 pounds including postage for a pair of the universal type from eBay.
