Lambda probe gone again !

Recommended Posts

Checked the lambda probe this morning with the volt meter and its not working, only had it in 14 months :( . The mpg on the mfa was on 15 constantly and the engine was ideling low so i knew there was something a miss. So another £68 up the swany for a new one from the stealers. the one thats in now is an original part by vw by the way, anybody else had one go in a short period of time :?: . I suppose it's just the way it goes, some cars can go donkeys years with the same one and and onother may need 3 or 4 in it's lifetime.
