a98pmalcolm Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 hay all. I read about the j spec supes 02 sensors goin slightly making more fuel consumption. Just wondering were the 02 sensor is as i mite aswell replace it incase, as i only get about 150 miles a tank and i drive pretty sensiable 80% of the time. Any part numbers? also is it worth changing the lamber sensor? does it sound like the o2 sensor is faulty? Thanks all Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave17 Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 The lambda sensor is the o2 sensor, same thing You don't have to get a new one, you can just soak it in lemon juice overnight and it will be better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any part numbers? also is it worth changing the lamber sensor? does it sound like the o2 sensor is faul NA or TT? UK or J-spec? If the O2 sensor hasn't been changed for a few years and you're only getting 150m per tank I would definitely fit a new one. Cleaning with lemon juice may improve things for a short time, but will not last long.

Scott Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 Surely its just a case of unscrewing one..... then screwing in the other? If your paying £150 i'll do the job for 149. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 Really? Based on what? Why write "fitted" then? Seemed that you were pricing it including a labour charge of some sort Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hmoreta Posted October 10, 2009 Share Posted October 10, 2009 I have one new O2 sensor that I bought by mistake...is for sale if you are interested Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glosphil Posted October 10, 2009 Share Posted October 10, 2009 I got a used one somewhere, if I can find it you can have it, I fitted a brand new one, but it made no difference, so I'm guessing its fine. Easy as pie to fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
