Could be the O2 sensor/CAT - is the fault code thrown intermittently or once reset does it return immediately? I cannot remember if you are running full turbo back with high flow cat or standard cat?

I have the Milltek Downpipe and 200 cell cat Dom.

Did you look here?

[Saint Steve]

Thankyou Ian. Where are these Oxygen sensors they speak of ??

I had an MOT at VW, with my Sportscat installed and it passed the emissions test, so hopefully runles out my Cat from being dodgy, and also Phil Millington had also checked the cat with an endiscope when they had it.
Hmmm, intermitant error could be a dodgy sensor signal?

Agree Steve, as it is intermittent could be poor insulation on the wiring to the sensor, or the sensor gone o/c itself.

[Saint Steve]

Anyone know where the oxygen sensors are mounted??

Cheers for that Dom.

See you tommorow

Bah, progress is slow on my dissertation proposal which means I'll need to shoot off early. Probably half eight or nine - but I will pop down and say hello for awhile for sure.

....And to collect my Eibach springs for thingymyjig?

[Poppa Dom]

Robin,
As I live in Bracknell I am more than happy to sort delivery of your springs if needed.

[RedRobin]

^^^^
Thx Dom

Hedge is currently backing up The Commander of Fire and then you're backing up The Big 'Un. I'm sure that 'G60s GO' will receive the goods he has now paid for.

Seese y'all tonite.. Looking forward to it. My car was extremely clean (by my standards) yesterday but I hit a few short showers en route to Cardiff and back. Plus the female I was with persuaded me against my better judgement to detour down some one-car wide B-roads (more like C-roads) for about 15 miles just to see some bluebell woods  . I don't think she quite understood why I was swearing out loud so much whenever I heard stones etc against my car. Screw the feckin' bluebells, I ain't going down that road in my car again!

Yep, will of course be doing that
