Only ever removed & replaced one when I decatted my old French tin can - 306!  The fooker had welded itself to the cat - Had to heat it up & get the cat in a vice to remove!!   :angry:   :grin:

IIRC, new ones from Pug cost other peeps roughly £100.  Have never enquired about a Mk4 one, sorry.

How uncanny!!! :o  Just done a search on one of my engine codes & this thread came up!  :D

These are 2 out of the 3 codes that I've got at the moment!  :(

Plus, also got a nasty rattle from the manifold/downpipe area.  :cry:

Definitely a lambda sensor, then?  It's just that I've got a rather unnerving rattle (esp. under load) coming from the manifold area.  :(
