Howdy!

If you haven't found the right part yet, I'd suggest going to Rock Auto or one of our sponsors in the Marketplace tab above. With most parts, you'll get what you pay for- aka, ebay, which cheap, may not be the best option to keep your car dependable. With Rock Auto or a genuine Nissan or Infiniti part, you're guaranteed the right performance.

Bank 1 means passenger side, and sensor 2 means the downstream sensor, after the catalytic converter. Since you need the downstream right sensor, try searching with the following keywords: 01 qx4 oxygen sensor downstream right (or passenger). Then choose the brand you prefer.

Here is an example: http://www.ebay.com/itm/WALKER-Downstre ... b7&vxp=mtr

However, you have to be careful to make sure that the part fits your particular vehicle. Use the compatibility chart to make sure your vehicle is listed.

As frapjap stated, a parts website such as Rockauto will ask what car you're shopping for before giving you any results, ensuring that you find a part which will fit your vehicle. So unless you know exactly what you need, it's better to look at this kind of site first.

I used Bosch when I replaced mine. Their site has a part finder so you can find out which part number is right for your application. A word of warning: even though I got the specified part, the connector was wrong and I ended up having to wire up the new sensor to the old connector. I don't think this was Bosch's fault, though, because the other sensors I saw at the store had the same problem :gotme

Good luck!
