silkinrich Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 Orange warning light came on a few weeks ago, when tested, saying one of the lambda sensors had gone. Had it replaced, all good for another 400 miles, light back on, saying the same as before, ( same one ) where do i go from here ,dont wanna spend another £150 quid replacing it again, for the same thing to happen again, any ideas ????

Sam Mcgoo Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 Aftermarket exhausts and/or High flow cats/decats allow more gas flow which can cause the O2 sensor fault codes. What is your exhaust set up? What codes is it throwing up? You can get O2 sensor spacers (from ZmanAlex) that can cure it 90% of the time. Give us the answers to the above questions and we will see if we can help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZMANALEX Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 We have these in stock for next day delivery, I will PM you details. Ewen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scobie140 Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 Could possibly be the other sensor, I got the error code up and just changed them with a pair from Zmanalex^^ but try the spacers first since there cheaper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silkinrich Posted August 13, 2013 Author Share Posted August 13, 2013 Right going to try the spacers first,, cheers for all your help, will let you know how it goes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Mcgoo Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 So what is your exhaust and cat set up? And what codes are you getting? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silkinrich Posted August 20, 2013 Author Share Posted August 20, 2013 Not sure what the codes were etc,,however, got the spacers fitted now, so fingers crossed, thats sorted it. will keep you posted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
