Emissions test-please give advice on how to prepare..

[Jasikasisback]

what is that magic additive??

[Len]

I've been advised not to remove the lambda as it is difficult to get out abd the threads usually get damaged and you can't replace it. Besides the point, what do you clean the deposits off of it?

Who ya gonna believe? Some bloke in a pub or somebody, such as myself, who has had the problems and sorted them! And yes I have taken out a Lambda, cleaned it and put it back!

[Jasikasisback]

I believe you Len. Just afraid I'll damage the threads and MOT is tomorrow..so am quite wary...vagcom does not say ig is faulty but could still be clogged up...

[WadGTI]

If you worried about the threads, then just take it out as if you were treating a sparkplug. Loosen it a half inch turn, tighthen, the loosen again and repeat until it comes out.

I think your over worrying

Trailer?

easier than getting rid of the mk3 too

[Jasikasisback]

yeah buy a caravan:). nah I need a people carrier. I don't think I'd get more than £300-400 for the mk3 as one automatic similar specs went for £350 in my area. They are cheap now. Rather park it up for 2-3 years in a barn and see what happens, really should've stuck it in the barn in the first place:). Only got one parking spot
