When I start the car from cold and pull away without mucking about the car has no power for the for first 30 meters. However if I sit on the drive for 30 seconds (playing with stereo etc) and then pull away there is no issue. Also when starting when hot she can sometimes turn over a fair few times before starting.I recently had the exhaust changed and the lambda sensor was changed to the one that came with the exhaust, is this the likely culprit? |

Had the same issue with mine. Wouldn't bother with the cheaper ones if you can avoid it. Decent Bosch unit and no worries! Buy cheap buy twice. |
