Bosch supplies VW with the lambda sensor. There is a slight superficial cosmetic difference between the two but the sensor is identical. I should know as I'm using the Bosch one. :smiley:

Cheers Ayoub :drinking: will look into this first before thinking about changing!
Well today, I started of with a simple boost/vacuum leak test, the objective was to find bubbles from where I had sprayed the different parts with soapy water, no bubbles, none seemed to be sucked away either, I replaced the PCV gasket, nice new one in there now, replaced all the boost hoses in around the DV, serviced the DV, some fresh forge grease in, added a custom spacer in, only cost 10p, so thought I would try it, re-fitted the throttle body hose, as I was not 100% happy with the fit, clips all tightened up, replaced the MAF sensor with a spare I had, scanned and out for a test drive, I have to say the car drives great :driver: love it... But problem still there!
The next thing I would like to try, is cleaning the throttle-body flap, what would be the best to use?
My idle seems to tick over between 720-760 rpm's, can this be adjusted in anyway?
Thanks

afaik there's no way to alter the idle speed even with vcds.
