'93 LS400 Code 25
Recently a local mechanic used a general diagnostic on our '93 and code 25 came up. Since he used a general approach, we took it to a Toyota dealer to have a specific diagnostic ran...turns out its the oxygen sensors. Toyota will replace both for about $830, the general mechanic will do it for $500. I can purchase the sensors from NAPA for about $200 total. Are these easy to install? This is my wife's vehicle and I have only worked on custom Dodge and Chevy trucks previously.
Thanks

if you buy the direct bolt in where you dont have to do any soldiering, then id say its about a 20min job for the front 2, and maybe a half hour-45min for the rear 2. do it yourself. buy a wrench the size needed. 7/8ths is the size, or just buy a o2 sensor socket.

Thanks!
Thanks so much for the great advice folks! Bought the Denso sensors from NAPA for about $92 each; looking to install this week. Was presently surprised that NAPA had them for so much less than Adnance or AutoZone
