P0133 — O2 Sensor Slow Response (Bank 1 Upstream)

P0133 is set when the upstream oxygen sensor on Bank 1 takes longer than the calibrated maximum to switch between rich and lean readings during normal closed-loop operation. A healthy upstream O2 sensor switches several times per second at 2500 RPM. A "lazy" sensor switches slowly, which prevents the ECM from making fast fuel adjustments — degrading drivability and emissions.
