I'm taking my car into Grahme Goode Racing tomorrow to diagnose a failed MOT on the emmisions test. Posible cause is the LAMBDA oxygen sensor.
If this is so, a replacement is over £300 plus fitting. But I have been doing research on this forum and Halfords do a replacement for £49.99 (halfords code 180398) which my local store has in stock.
My car is MY95 sti, scoobysport exhaust from CAT back.
My subjective question is:
If I need new sensor, should I buy genuine part for £300+ or Halfords for £50
Graham Goode Racing a telling me that I must use genuine replacements as they have never seen a successful non-genuine replacement. Is this sales talk?
