Welcome to the forum. This is one of the best and most knowledgeable MB forums out there.
Once you start posting and contributing here, you will find that quite often there are somewhat belligerent and short tempered people who show up, post one question (usually very badly worded) and then proceed to poo-poo whatever advice they have been given. Perhaps you were mistaken for one of these types of users, and thus the response you got was not shall we say, all that helpful.
However, one must remember that the etiquette and demeanor of the folks on a given discussion board is just as unknown to a new user as the user is to the folks on the board.
I think perhaps you took just a bit too much offense at the off-hand comments made by one of our own who apparently was just having a bit of fun and not say, insulting your gene pool. Was there a more polite way to point out that you didn't word your question in a way that would lend itself to being answered? Sure. But then again, you're the one asking for help here, and you're also the new guy. One can hardly justifiably complain about the comportment of someone responding to a request for free advice, now can one? What do I know, I'm not a forum moderator.
At any rate, all of us who seek advice must occasionally remind ourselves of the old adage pertaining to honey and vinegar.
Good luck and welcome to the forum.

Next time ask for a better explanation instead of a comment, and your yes is a yes to stop me from posting or you actually know for a fact that it is a fault and know what is? Or should i stick with what i think and consider that to be a fault and 50% is considered to be a problem with the O2 Sensor
