Default Oxygen sensor location

Hello everyone. So im trying to isolate if the “restricted performance” warning is being cause by a clogged cat but im a little lost here. I opened the hood and i cant seem to locate the oxygen sensor. Is it under the car? Im looking for the ones on the driver side. I dont just want to go to a muffler shop and have them just chane the cat without verifying thats the cause of the problem. Pulled codes and gives me p0300 p0302 p0304 p0306 p0308 p0316 and wont go past around 10 mph. Thanks in advance.

As there is no indication of Model or Year in your post I and you haven't added vehicle details to your forum signature as we ask all members to do, I had a look at your forum profile:

2011 Jaguar XF 5.0L V8


At least we can be certain it's a 5.0 litre but would you be viewing the engine compartment of an XF or an XK?

There are two on each bank, one in front of and one behind the cat. Honestly the simplest way to tell if you have clogged cats is to remove the muffler and mid pipe and check for flow out the cat pipes. Also from what I've read you'll usually end up with misfire codes for a clogged cat.

Post up what the codes mean from the free X150 service manual for more relevant help.

all the codes I get are misfire codes all on the same bank. Cylinder 2,4, 6, and 8 plus random misfire. Thats why I wanted to check to see if the cat is whats causing my issue. Plus no power at all and wont really run past 10mph
