And you listed the same part number twice
"I bought both Denso 234-4623 and 234-4623. Got 234-4623 replaced and that did the trick.
I would buy both to save some hassle. If you don't need 234-4630, you can always return it back to amazon."
can you clear that up for me so I know which one to order and replace first. Thanks

Milellie did you try changing your steering rack bushings. Im almost certain yours has play like mine does. I bet that would work, if not then its DEFINITELY the wider/bigger 17" wheels and low profile tires compared to the 16" 215/60s this car was originally equipped with. Let me guess you have the 17" lexus rims as well with the 235/45/17 tires? if its not the steering rack im GUARANTEEING its the rims and tires because ive experienced this with another car when I changed the rims, i went crazy thinking something was wrong changing everything for nothing meanwhile just putting the stock rims on the car fixed everything. Let me know im curious

I got a quot for mine and since i live in Cali the cat that i need (california emissions) i got a price of 500 just for Cat 1. any one Know where to get a better deal in Cali?

did you try changing the other o2 sensor in that same bank? or did you only change one? maybe thats the issue and not the cat

Millellie, try swappiing out with someone who has 16s i can GUARANTEE it will drive like a better car because I just sold my 99 with 16s and I can tell the difference especially out here in NY with these ****ed up roads.
