I just ordered one from camskill they have them on offer for 89 quid at the mo, I wouldnt bother with the universal ones, I got one for 30 pounds but still failed mot, quiet easy to fit just remove the turbo heatsheild and remove it with a 22mm spanner, I found it easier when the exhaust was warmed up to.

think you can tell by looking at the wire on it mate
quote Is this the same item as the MAF sensor or am I completely wrong quote
no mate the lambda sensor is on the exhaust down pipe off the turbo.the maf sensor is on the air inlet pipe behind the air filter

me too fella, hence why im changing the lambda sensor as the car is lumpy.
i remember jase saying it was on its way out anywho when he put on a decat downpipe for us a while back, and the problem of misfire is steadily increasing, so time to act...
