Hey guys so I went to do a pull and scanned the car got this code 128901 I believe this is the primary o2 sensor correct? Just want to make sure I have the correct understanding before throwing a part at a problem. Screenshot below from bm3


Also took a log to see if anything odd is coming up. Got one knock event but I'm assuming bad gas since I had it happen before. Car is EWG, drop in intake/Catless/Race IC/Turbosmart BOV/Turbo inlet are the mods on BM3 multimap stage 2 running 93 on the 91 map

Link is here: https://www.bootmod3.net/log?id=6100...90c64360f53c81

Car feels good at the moment.

Any advice is appreciated

Yes that is the primary/upstream o2 sensor (before cat). And yes you have a knock in the log and in addition your timing looks pretty bad even after the knock, at higher RPM. I would log again on a fresh tank of gas.

I just got this same code, 128901. The car has 14K miles on it & is stock other than an MST intake & one resonator delete. I filled up with 93 Oct & 1 gallon of e85 2 days ago if that makes a difference.

Not sure what would cause this code. I cleared it but I haven't driven it to see if it comes back.

Do you have a N55? Asking cause you said "one resonator" and your profile says 440

e85 is probably fouling your upstream. If it comes back, you may need to replace your upstream O2 sensor.

E85 doesn't normally do that

Sorry, I’m just seeing this as I never got a notification of any responses. Funny enough, the code just came back and I started researching again and saw I commented here. No, I don’t have an N55, didn’t realize this was N55 section when I first commented, sorry.
