Is this o2 sensor telling me anything?

1. golden brown no check engine light car running well.
2. Black, check engine light on running rich.
3. A little more white than yours check engine light on running lean.

You have to read the voltage and voltage swing when the car is running.

How much is a new one from rockauto? This looks like a Bosch.

I put a new one in already. Porsche says every 30k and I am pretty sure it has not been done in that time

Looks about as good as it can. White with a hint of tan, seems like she's running great.

Is it just a single wire O2? The older ones like that are good for about 30k, and they're cheap enough to do.
