I no there have been many threads on this but my engine seems lumpy below 2k especially in 6th gear, now my idle when cold is about 1.1k is this normal? It settles down when warmed up, iv read alot about map sensors but any information and help would be great

Possibly the early signs of lambda failure. What's your fuel consumption been like lately?

Sounds like the lambda playing up to be honest. Yes

Try unplugging it and then see how the engine performs. Thumbs up

CTS then, especially if the fuel consumption is up and down. Yes

No, you need to measure the resistance of it and see if it's within the specified values. Yes
