Title: Which Lambda?
Post by: RubixRonnie on October 24, 2020, 09:23
Had a bank 1 sensor 1 code through up on my 2. 2 days before MOT due :(.
Luckily I don't need the car right now as it is usually my DD.
Anyways, I pulled the old lambda and it looks different to the one I've just bought even though I'm sure I got the part no right.
Can anyone confirm if this is correct?
It's an NTK and I believe the other one was a Denso, which may explain the slight variation in look.
Cheers in advance,Danny

Once you take the cover off the thread they won't be far apart - as long as it fits and the connector is correct it will be fine
For reference, I had a spare for my Subaru Legacy that I used in the MR2 and it's been in a couple of years now without issue
