i replaced my o2 sensors twice, and the cel still hasn't gone away...
the first time i replaced them, i bought bnib bosch universal replacements
the 2nd time, i bought oem type, by Denso...
i've tried adding and taking away the foulers, resetting codes at autozone, and disconnecting battery to erase them, still nothing, cel comes back on...
has anyone ever solved this locally?
also, do anyone know if a bad gas cap can cause cel?

Ok officially have a REALLY big problem!...Going down the road car starts to make a funny noise so I down shift and right when I down shift I hear a banging noise under my car so I pull over and look under my car and my o2 sensor is hanging so I call on of my friends that lives close by go there and we look under my car and the last thing I thought happend happend my test pipes are cracked and that is wut made the o2 sensor fall out so my question is how importan is the o2 and is it ok to ride around like that ? Because iam no where's close to my house which sucks lol

I say this because that car is a hybrid of 03 and 06 parts, and the 06 ECUs tend to have more issues.
It's just a guess though
Ian always had that problem.
Dunno how to fix it, there is some better non-fouler info out there.
But people dont have consistent results

I'm pretty sure the Z has 4 o2 sensors. did you change all of them at the same time? are you running test pipes? maybe it's the wiring, i don't know. sounds like you tried everything i would have done...
im just guessing. it has the same symptoms my girl's car had last year and thats what fixed it.

yes, it has 4, the codes that are thrown are specifically for the rear o2 sensors(test pipes). Yes i have strup tp's, but I read that the 03-04 z's o2 sensors are more friendly with aftermarket tp's. Also, i tried both adding and taking away the foulers, and none of that works.

I had a code because of my O2 sensor (I think PO157 or something like that) and I went ahead and replaced both of them to get rid of it. Tried nonfoulers, etc... nothing worked until they were replaced.
Hmm, if it does have the 06 ECU, I'd imagine you'd need the 04.5+ O2 sensors since they're all wideband

I figure if it does have an 06 ecu, i don't think it'll throw the P0037/P0057 codes as those codes are for the 03-05 350zs. I was researching and the 06's would throw the P0157 like yours did...

What code is it?

if it was a helicopter i could fix it.... i learn something new about cars every day.
we fixed it by replacing the TP sensor. my in-law works at capital buick/gmc and he fixed it for me. i dont know how they narrowed it down to that though. if you dont have it figured out by this afternoon, i will hit him up and see of he can help you out.
