Anybody recommend a cheaper alternative to the £100 Subaru item. I've heard mixed reviews on the Halfords universal Lambda and would like something to last longer than a couple of months.

Try oxy sensor , just over £26 plus vat. I got mine next day. Been on the car for a while without problems. You get the heat shrink/connectors to connect onto thye subaru connector.

I got a 3 wire Lambda from Halfords last night, they still had two in stock, 25 quid

Have to bugger about with the connector tho, but still working a treat

Sensor on yours will be in the header on the drivers side.
You'l see it by looking under the front of the car, towards the drivers side

The ouch is £300 for a lambda sensor.
All others seem to be £100=£200.
