If you are very good mechanically it is easy to change. You can find the sensor at Ebay for $82 dollars or cheaper for an original Nissan part. The sensor is right at the inner wheel well of the right/passenger side front tires. Jack the car and remove the passenger front tire. The sensor is behind the front strut assembly near the fire wall. You may want to go under first and shine a light to be able to see the sensor with the wire on it if it's not busted. Usually the wire is separated and be dangling separate. You should be able to see the sensor if you already ebayed it and you know how it look's like. It's connected to a large metal/rubber Power Steering hose... at the end . You will need a large wrench/adjustable to be able to take it out. It will be a mess with the fluid coming down so you need to be quick, but care full not to break the connector. I think an o2 sensor wrench might do it? Anyway good luck..the OBD code would be P0550. The easier way would be to bring the sensor to your favorite mechanic/friend and will change it for $20 or a couple of beers...Good luck.
