Cool, that's the kind of information I needed. By "rear sensor" do you mean post-cat sensor?
Yes, I posted another thread regarding the code but all I was able to determine in that thread was that I can interchange the rear O2 sensors from side to side but not from front to back.

I'll take it to the dealer first thing on Saturday. Thank you!
