Title: Lamda Sensors... OEM brand?
Post by: rich83 on April 26, 2019, 09:30:16 pm

f*ck sake.... if its not one thing its another.... very close to throwing my car out of the window at the moment.

EML on for lamda.....

008753 - Oxygen (Lambda) Sensor B1 S1
               P2231 - 004 - Signal Shorted to Heater Circuit - MIL ON

So need a new sensor.

Are the OEM ones Bosch? They are £170.99 on ECP so I imagine VW are going to be more than that... just checking that a Bosch one from ECP the same as OEM.
