Heated 02 Sensor
I have a 2002 6sp. I'm constantly getting a code on my DIC reading "DTC POI33 H C" It says it's Slow response Heated 02 sensor. What exactly does that mean? I recently had headers and Stingers installed is there a connection? I would like to know what I'm talking about before I take it to the dealer. Thanks for you're time...

I had this same code and it gave me fits for a while.
I changed all 4 when I put the KB on, the pass rear was cross threaded and it was a $%#@#! to get back in... but that wasn't the one throwing the code in the first place.
After I changed them all the code came back ~20 miles later, I had it erased and it came back again... then went away on its own and hasn't been back in ~200 miles.
Just find out which one it is and change it out.

Right now , both of my O2 sensors are bad from running race gas and 118k miles .
The car will not idle at all during cold starts but seems to be ok
once the car warms up .
If your car dosnt idle on cold starts or runs like doodoo then i would have them replaced , but like jbuerke142 said , it might be a ghost in the machine .

If you are getting slow response codes, just replace both O2s.

When I put on headers, I put the rear sensors in the front spot, since the rear sensors have a hotter heating element. But you will have to get an adapter for the plug. Never had a code ever since the new rear O2s went into the fronts.
