I'd say that you either have a faulty ground to the upstream O2, or there is too much carbon buildup on the sensor itself. Try either pulling that sensor and seeing what it looks like, or splicing and running a separate ground.

There was a recall on the ECM for many of the 03-06 cars. I'd check the VIN with a Toyota dealer to see if your car is affected

There are many options for shops that offer a 100% free diagnosis of your brake system. Try a Monro, Mr Tire, Meineke.. You can get a diagnosis and a written estimate quickly (these places make a killing off brakes, they will look at it ASAP).

If you are planning on driving this car for a long time and having it work correctly, the defouler is not the way to go. It is a fantastic short-term solution, but it covers up many other potential problems. This could seriously lower the life expectancy of your motor.

For as little as it would cost, I would suggest replacing all the vacuum lines associated with the brake booster. You might also want to look at VSV operation. As far as misfires go, are you getting codes for all 4 cylinders, a code for multiple random, or what? Perhaps you somehow got the...

There is a possibility that someone at a muffler shop can cut and custom weld something in that will work. The $910 estimate is most likely a quote for the "best option", which is an OE style replacement of the entire catback. This also depends on the condition of the flange directly after the...

I'm looking for a set of the OE 17's that came on the first gen Matrix XR/XRS. Wheels need to be in good shape as far as not being bent and not having horrible curb rash. Minor scrapes/scratches that can be covered by refinishing is OK. I am located in south central PA and am willing to drive a...

The best improvement you can make is a motor swap to the 2zz motor and trans that came in the XRS Corolla/Matrix and the Celia GTS.

If you have a P0420 code and no other current or pending codes, the problem is almost always the converter. Putting an O2 sensor in is most likely a waste of money if there are no other symptoms.
