Hi I have just had car mot'd and it failed on idle! He said it is over fueling it was supposed to be 750? but it was 2.25 or something like that.

Does anyone know the problem? Could it be
Air flow meter? or Lambda Sensor?

The car does drive lumpy low down especially when cold but is great on full throttle.

Any ideas on price and places to purchace parts would be great.

Oh it a 1999 wagon uk turbo standard apart from sti intercooler and p1 exhaust.
Cheers for all advice!

 

hi m8 my car my00 2000 turbo just failed its mot for the emmisions it was the lambda sensor your looking at 120 quid from a dealer replace this and get it back in it will pass no probs its a 5 minute job to replace and just disconect the battery for 30 minutes after fitting then reconect it that will reset the ecu and all should be well its a 22 mm spanner size cheers scoobzie

 

Nice one will try that first. Cheers

 

Is it a 3 wire one that I need or are they all different?

Anyone know?

 

you just have to look at it m8 it should be a 3 wire though

 

another tip dont bother with a universal sensor it will last weeks.
