As the topic says, I need a little assistance in locating the O2 sensor on the D17 engine, for the 2002 Civic. Any ideas where it is guys?

checked the exhaust manifold already, but nothing there. also checked, but apparently my car doesn't have a cat converter. vehicle was bought new from the firm....PBN model civic, and I know that no exhaust work was done, but it doesn't have one. no wiring in that area also for the sensor Confused

Dat really strane hoss. Hmm, as Hirotoshi, rightly said, those are the locations of the sensor. Does the manual say anything about its location?

i would think by now that all new fuel injected car,s sold by the dealers would have one(at least a single wire one) my local ek3 (pbb) d15z4 came wiyhout one. i now have a jdm d15b vetc and that came with one.

ok, so just to update you guys, I decided to check with Classic, and after the parts division guys went through their service manual for the car, they realised that those engines came without an O2 Sensor. They then checked with one of the mechanics who confirmed this. First time I've encountered this, so I guess all those local ES1 Civics have no O2 Sensor.

all industrilized nations,with strict emission laws require that vehicles have one.

Aaron 2NR, yep, according to the service manual for mine that I have, it's supposed to have as well, but according to classic motor's one, it doesn't. and that together with the fact that my car really doesn't have one, well i guess it just ain't there. I wonder if the foreign ones have any.........
