| Post subject: | V6 O2 sensors! (Dragon Rob) |
right, after Robbie diagnosed my car with codes 17 and 24 (left and right bank O2 sensor inversion) i decided to post on mx-3.com to find out where to get some replacements. They came up trumps for 26quid each so a bargain me thinks. [url]http://www.mx-3.com/phpbb2/viewtopic.php?p=257123#257123[/url] look here for the topic i posted, i think it was dragon rob that also had the blessed code 17 and 24 thrown on sunday

mine does that ocasionally too, do you have an ecotek fitted? |

no. i don't have ecotek. it rev hunts when idling. once i get that sorted i'll have a fine running 1.5 LXI (ok .. i'll still be looking for an o/s headlamp ... and the aircon needs some gas!). that's why i wanted to know who's robbie and wanted to ask if he could do my diagnostic codes for free 
haven't found him yet

I wouldn't rush to change the O2 sensors based on one code read. The code only means that the sensor output is less than 0.55V 120 sec after engine exeeds 1,500rpm. Could have just been a bit carboned up at one point. I'd want to clear and recheck it a few times before changing it to see if the fault keeps re-occuring  The tester will also check the output of the O2 sensors and give live readings if you are really worried

If the 02 sensors are shot you won't get through an emission test, but I doubt they are to be honest. I reckon the fuel consumption is just a case of heavy right foot What are you getting
