coullstar 0 Posted June 18, 2009 Might work. If Vagcom isnt bringing up any problems then it may not be the lambda. Can you not get one from elsewhere, doesnt have to be dealers. High CO is due to incomplete combustion so not enough air or overfuelling. What youve done should have helped. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
millerman 0 Posted June 18, 2009 kind of thought this i have sourced a bosch lambda sensor for £30 posted i have a gas tester to see if there is any change after fitting i think there should be Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
