Alright. Well I got the code and it had nothing to do with my upstream sensor. It was P0141. I am currently running the universal Denso oxygen sensor on the cat and the guy at Advanced Auto says it maybe giving an incorrect voltage and should get the exact fit which I am getting tomorrow. Hopefully that solves my issues. If anyone else has any suggestions or input all is appreciated.

I'd honestly say never get the universal stuff, either go with direct fit or oem(cost quite more). I'm running both denso direct fit and they've been ok untill now.

Yeah. The direct fit immediately removed the CEL. I hope this helps anyone having troubles with a universal having similar problems so they know in the future to stick with the direct fit.

Now to get a replacement main relay so my car doesn't just randomly die or not start. I already replaced all the other things. Hopefully this will be it.

You probably wired it incorrectly. I have been using Bosch universal for quite some time. I can post a wiring diagram for any other users who would like to use a universal unit.

With pictures and add it to the DIY master list. But for the money and hassle I would just do OEM fitment.
