THANKS
Where is the sensor fitted? There are several sensors on modern cars so could be any would need an idea to be able to say what it is.
Yeah you need to take a photo really so we can see. Best guess at this time would be the lambda sensor as there normally aren't too many sensors towards the bottom of the engine.
