Rear o2's should be steady and biased lean.
That's in fact the sign that the cats are working as they should be. You can go in and have a "mixture ratio test" and check the "alphas". The R51's have A/F sensors rather than the conventional front 02's, so the mix ratio test is a bit different. Then have them check s1 and s2 readings for B1 and B2. They should know what this all means. Do all this at operating temp. It's the best way to check other than check pre/post with a 5 gas analyzer (which has it's own issues).
