Order of inspection

  1. P0133 O2 Sensor Circuit Slow Response (Bank 1 Sensor 1) Medium

    The P0133 code means the oxygen sensor ahead of the catalytic converter still works, but takes longer than allowed to react to mixture changes. It is the classic symptom of aging: the sensor is not dead, it is slow, and that keeps the computer from correcting the fuel injection with precision.
