My oxygen sensor is hanging from the bottom of my car and I am still driving it. How bad is this for my car and can it cause any other damage. The car is really loud and the check engine light it on, but it still does drive. I cant get it fixed till saturday. If there anything I can do temporarily. I climber under there and can figure out where the damn thing fell out of. Also I now understand why women dont repair cars. There is not much room for boobs under there

if its hanging, i would suggest to secure it, but its not that big of a deal if you are replacing it soon.

My inspection is in Dec, but I got a hook up that will pass me regardless. My friend works at a gas station

the oxygen sensor being off won't ruin your car, but it will make it noisey and you might get crappy gas mileage, also it will trip up the computer and you may get a check engine or other warning light.
