I was on here for a bit before the site was redeveloped and changed but sumhow my name was removed from the list.
If anyone doesnt remember me well i dont blame ya lol
only mods ive done to the mera are:
* p2 black front light upgrade
* HID conversion
* Chrome door handles
* 3inch rear back box
* Mood lighting in the front pocket (infront of the gear stick)
* Mac Audio 12inch sub
* JBL power 17cm componants
* Avic X1r head unit
forgot to say its a 2000 3dr 1800Sport in a Blue / Turquise (sp) colour.
ANYYYYYWAY
Had the MOT yesterday and it failed on emissions (well should have failed but me and the tester made it pass
)
The Check-Engine light came on a couple of days whilst on the motorway in 5th gear at 80mph
Its staying on constantly so not giving me a fault code.
Im guessing its probably the lamba sensor as it will kill the emissions and or the cat AND my fuel consumpsion is crappy at the mo, car struggles to accelerate between 4k to 5k RPM and tries to stall when i come to a stand still.
the problem is places round me want bout £120 for the cat, £170ish for the pre-cat sensor and £80 for the post-cat sensor.
the light has now decided to go off the screen but guessing the problem is still there.
any advice what to do as i dont want to start replacing items without knowing wot's wrong.
also any ideas which sensor will be the root cause?
on the emission test monitor one rear 9.02 CO reading and the other 0.80 CO reading.
Assume the pre-cat will be controlling the fueling?
many thanks and hello to u lot again
