Re: Pre cat lambda sensor
Neither my local tps or vw dealer could get me one, so i cross referenced the part number for the correct bosch replacement and bingo all sorted. Thanks Alex

Re: Help Please! smoke from car!
Agree with alex, having just changed the breather unit and the pipe to the air box for new oem units it has solved the oil consumption and oily filter/throttle body issue. I think replacement pcv units are the only way to solve the issue

Pre cat lambda sensor
Does anyone have a part number for the precat lambda sensor on a 6n2 gti? To cut a long story short i replaced the front sensor with a bosch one from eurocarparts and after hunting down a misfire and lumpy idle i have found using vcds that the front lambda i have brought isnt the right one for my ca...

I dremel'd open the oil one as i was curious as to how it works, to find that it had all sorts of oily muck in it and me filling it with brake cleaner certainly didnt do it any good at all, so a new one was just the tic...

Re: My Polo GTi project restoration
Fair play mate, with the starter back in i cant get any hex key on mine, can barely see the bloody thing lol.
Just waiting for my new injector to turn up (hopefully.this week) and she might be a bit closer to going back on the road.
Cant wait as i havent even driven it yet lol!
