But if it were that bad, your ECU would let you know about it (service engine light).

Secondary O2 sensors have no bearing on fueling or how the car runs. They are the "rear" two sensors downstream from the catalytic converters - one per bank.
while yes, in theory, you are correct, but ive never seen a sensor cause such havoc. for all intents and purposes, the o2 sensors are mere monitors and even bad ones wont cause fuel trims to change performance, noticeable anyway. but who knows, this car has proven to be a very weird car already in other ways.

Agreed, however, if the ECU algorithm is jacked, I think it could cause exactly that. I just realized my OBD software won't let me save data, so I can't post my drive =( Will keep looking for other software.

Has anyone had this problem in the evenings? Or mostly in the day time?
