How To Replace an Oxygen Sensor in Your Maserati GranTurismo | Step-by-Step DIY Fix

In this video, we tackle a check engine light issue that turned out to be a faulty bank 2 rear oxygen sensor. We walk you through how to diagnose it with a scan tool, then dive into the tools you'll need and step-by-step instructions on how to replace the sensor. We also share some handy tips for getting the old sensor out and making the replacement smoother. Finally, we clear the code and go over how to complete a drive cycle to ensure the new sensor passes the OBD2 monitor checks.

Here's a few suggested tools and parts for the job. I realized later in the video that ratcheting wrenches for the bolts on the frame underside were better suited than the 1/4 deep-sockets. Opt for shallow 8mm socket instead If you don't use the ratcheting wrenches. You still need the 10mm deep socket for the brackets by the A/C compressor area.

Please note ^^^ The above scan tool comes pre-loaded with BMW software. They don't currently
offer one pre-loaded with the Maserati software or without software pre-loaded, however this is EASY to do with a computer and the supplied usb thumb drive and an additional $60 from Foxwell themselves via their update software program. This requires a computer with windows 7/8/ or windows 10. You can also purchase any other manufacturer module to add to the scan tool as well. I have ferrari and maserati along with a few others.
