When sensors respond sluggishly, the engine control unit struggles to regulate fuel delivery across the \u003cstrong\u003eB20B\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eB20Z\u003c\/strong\u003e powerbands. This results in rich fuel trims, unburned hydrocarbon wash on cylinder walls, fouled spark plugs, failed tailpipe emissions tests, and persistent P0130 through P0420 fault codes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Engineering Solution\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis 2-piece upstream and downstream kit features high-grade stainless steel housings with double-laser-welded construction to isolate the sensing element from thermal shock and road spray. Rapid-heating ceramic elements reach stoichiometric operating temperature in seconds, allowing the ECU to transition out of open-loop cold start rapidly. Each sensor includes perforated diffusion tips, pre-treated high-temperature lead shielding, and factory-pinned 4-pin gray connectors that lock directly into the chassis harness without cutting or repinning.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable width=\"100%\" style=\"border-collapse: collapse; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0; font-size: 14px; margin-bottom: 20px;\"\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color: #f9f9f9;\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"padding:10px; text-align: left; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003eFitment\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003e1997-2001 Honda CR-V\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"padding:10px; text-align: left; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003eEngine \/ Chassis\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003eB20B, B20Z 2.0L \/ RD1, RD2\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color: #f9f9f9;\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"padding:10px; text-align: left; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003eStock Output\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003e126-146 hp \/ 133 lb-ft\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"padding:10px; text-align: left; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003eReplaces OEM Part #\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003eN\/A\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1997-2001 Honda CR-V LX (2.0L L4 Gas - B20B \/ B20Z)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1998-2001 Honda CR-V EX (2.0L L4 Gas - B20B \/ B20Z)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2000-2001 Honda CR-V SE (2.0L L4 Gas - B20Z)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes this fit the RD1 and RD2 CR-V?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Yes, this is a direct fit for the 1997-2001 Honda CR-V equipped with the 2.0L \u003cstrong\u003eB20B\u003c\/strong\u003e or \u003cstrong\u003eB20Z\u003c\/strong\u003e engine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDo these sensors require wire splicing or repinning?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e No, both sensors feature OEM-specification 4-pin gray connectors designed for direct plug-and-play mating with the stock harness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Honda Long-Term Reliability Standard\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePreserve your high-mileage Honda powertrain with accurate exhaust monitoring that safeguards catalytic converter life and maintains efficient combustion under all driving conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"VelocityMax","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50511112995064,"sku":"DS-ESCWRP2RP","price":79.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0800\/1290\/2648\/files\/oxygen-sensors-for-honda-cr-v-1997-2001-2-0l-upstream-downstream-1.jpg?v=1789410373","url":"https:\/\/performancechiptuning.com\/fr\/products\/oxygen-sensors-for-honda-cr-v-1997-2001-2-0l-upstream-downstream","provider":"Performance Chip Tuning","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
