Went to Autozone, guy at the counter was confused as to what was bank 1 and bank 2 as his screen only said "left or right side". Bank 1 on my van's engine is on the side closest to the windshield and I tried to explain this to him, I even had a picture, (straight from their website), of the part I needed with their catalog number and still he was confused. I said well, the front of the engine is the end with the accessories right, so if you look from the front of my engine, then bank 1 would be on the left side of the engine, that's the side with the #1 piston, hence, "bank 1". Oh my freaking Gawd, I thought I was gonna pull my hair out. They didn't have the sensor in stock so they ordered it and gave me a "courtesy" discount. What should've taken 5 minutes, ended up taking oh, about a half an hour!!!! Wow!!!!

Had one of these go out on my Xterra. The warning lights went crazy on mine too. Not a terrible job but of course of the two it was the hardest one to get to.
