Then B1 S2 is due to having a decat fitted to the car.

Cheers Nick, I'll get a new sensor as soon as.

So far as I know I have a cat.

Ps, the one that says check DV, I've since fitted a Forge 007p. Not sure if I'm imagining things, but it seems to take off better, but still may be worth me getting boost checked for correct boost and leaks.

probs was the dv then, you have any way to clear the codes and see if it comes back?

Yes mate, cleared the codes also, so will keep an eye out.

The car was running like a b!tch too, so with the lambda sensor issue, I'll expect that one to come back until I've changed that and it hopefully runs better after.

Title: Re: Here's my fault codes
Post by: Ant1981 on 31 March 2011, 15:53: Having reset the codes, I went back out to get the front lambda sensor and codes P1116 and P1103 came back, the other two haven't.

Was surprised at how easy it came out, after a good soaking with WD40

Post by: richw911 on 25 April 2011, 18:51: All sorted now? :undecided:
Title: Re: Here's my fault codes
Post by: Wazzzer on 25 April 2011, 18:52: Yeah any more codes?
Title: Re: Here's my fault codes
Post by: Ant1981 on 25 April 2011, 20:28: Well what I'm going to do which I've not had a chance to yet, is clear the codes before I drive it again, then a matter of time to see if it comes back. I expect the turbo boost code to come back until that's sorted, but hopefully lambda will stay away and I'll get some good mpg's again.

Post by: Ant1981 on 25 May 2011, 13:30: Well last time I filled the tank back up, I drove into the petrol station having done 370 miles on that tank load. Regularily see 40mpg now :cool:
