What Causes Damage to the Front Oxygen Sensor in a New Car?
1 Answers
Damage to the front oxygen sensor in a new car is caused by the following reasons: Oxygen sensor poisoning: Using a tank of high-quality gasoline can help restore the activity of a poisoned oxygen sensor. Poor engine combustion leading to carbon deposits on the oxygen sensor surface: Check if the fuel injectors are clogged. If they are, the fuel injection volume will decrease, and the vehicle's fuel injectors need to be cleaned. Ceramic breakage in the oxygen sensor: The ceramic in the oxygen sensor is hard and brittle. Striking it with a hard object or washing it with a strong airflow may cause it to break and fail. Therefore, handle it with extra care and replace it promptly if any issues are detected.
