hello

got a ECU warning light on me saxo vtr 2000, w reg, citroen reckon its athe lambda sensor on the manifold, just wondering how hard it is to fit, had a look myself, thinkn i need to remove air pipe off filter to get at it? then does he elec fitting just pull out?
revs dont settle when car is idling also, is this due to the sensor?

easy to fit as long as the sensor not solid in the manifold then its a bit hard getting it out

take air filter pipes off
disconect the lamba sensor wire (lift the red end)
i use an adjustable spanner on the sensor and undo

if you have a decent spanner and the right size use that and take your time as you dont want to round the ends

no probs maybe leave the car running 4 a bit before might make the sensor come out easier as its hot

be carefull not to burn yourself though
