Did you replaced it with oem Bosch or with cheap generic Bosch?

If you didn't replaced it with oem Bosch,this is what you could expect.

The only solution for your problem is to buy oem one,because these cars are very picky about parts.

Which one did you replace? The P0133 code is triggered by the front sensor. Its usually a sensor heater element failure. The rear one rarely fails.

You dont have to.
First, go to the site:
http://www.boschautoparts.com/VehiclePa ... inder.aspx
find the "OE Type - Exact Fit ", like for 97 850 t-5 its 15097, then you can buy from:
https://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/de ... R&v=glance
or any other store.

It is one of the biggest pain in the rears I have ever had to change. The plug design is rediculous, and it's location is poorly thought out.
