How often should we change the oxygen sensors. Some say toyoto sensors seldom fails but other says it should be a part of regular maintenance. Should they be change with the timing belt like after ever 100000 km.

Suggested Repair

Do not replace oxygen sensors as routine maintenance or with the timing belt. Replace them only when the computer indicates a failure, typically with a check engine light.
