OO hubbys car had a problem today. The Oxygen sensor \ lamba sensor had gone to oxy heaven. He scanned it with a diagnostic thingy and it says 17604 oxygen lambda sensor circuit b1 s1 electrical malfunction" his freind said its the one before the cat (whatever that is, I'm sure I have no animals under my bonet, not that I check lol)
There is a bit of room to get at the sucker (his words) but it is simple a case of just un screwing it after youdisconnect the wiring loom bit and fitting the replacement and putting the elctrical plug back on ?
I said maybe he should spray it with WD40 and leave it overnight then try and unscrew the thingy magig.
I nearly spat a chocolate digestive when he said its £127 + vat for a new one and £60 for a garage to fit it. Hes quite handy at car stuff. He did my front brakes, and brake slight switch on a mk4 aswell. So sure I'm he can unscrew a blobby thing and put a new one in or does this requite some special tool other than a spanner ?
He can clear the fault on his scanner tool/
ooo this is for his mk4 golf 1.6 2001 his daily runner.
