Went to go to work this morning, started the car and it made an awful racket… almost instantly I knew what would be missing.
According to the local Facebook page mine was was one about 10 that were taken last night.
Insurance have said it’s a total loss because of the age of the car, so that’s out the window.
Looking at this: Catalytic Converter + Middle Exhaust + Oxygen Sensors + Gaskets For CR-V 04-07 | eBay

Anyone have experience of what does and doesn’t work - I know our cars scan be very picky when it comes to senders…

Well, here’s the thing… the cat sensors and middle pipe all came as a kit from eBay, so the sensors are absolutely unbranded.
I’ve ordered myself a Denso but that won’t be here for best part of a week 🙄

Thieves pulled the wires out the back of the plugs sensor side, so I unclipped the empty plugs. Car side wiring looks ok, but haven’t checked it with a meter.

If the wires were disconnected, how do you know you got them into the correct position?

Maybe there is an issue farther up into the harness, too, if the wires were forcibly pulled.

As in, the plugs from the old previous sensors were present inside the ones that are attached to the loom

Update the second… so the fault code has gone and the garage have “sealed the exhaust as best they can”, but it seems that the exhaust manifold is “defective”, as in cracked or warped.

So I need a new manifold.
(Long audible sigh)

Should have let the insurance company write it off.
