Default CEL - Code 2096

Got a code P2096 this morning - "Signal Delay Time for Oxygen Sensor Ageing - Above Limit". Is this just a bad O2 sensor? Anyone know what this is going to cost me?

Yep, the description sounded a little ambiguous to me also. Hopefully someone on the board has had this code before. For what it's worth, the car is running fine.

This is an O2 sensor aging fault code. Not uncommon on cars with 60,000 miles or more.
I would clear the code and if it comes back then you need to replace the O2 sensor.

I just got it two days ago and the fix was new cats under warranty. Your emissions warranty will cover that 8/80k
