Thank you. Just finished changing an outer CV boot, taking it back in for MOT retest later. I did reuse the nut as I didn't have another, but will source some more nuts for stock.
-
Haven't got a manual to hand and wondering what the torque setting is for the front hub nuts? Thanks.

Annoying knocking that isn’t track rods

Have a look at the anti roll bar bushes, grab the bar and give it a good tug/shake. If you need to, use a heel bar to see if you have excessive movement. The drop links are easily accessed, so you'd notice quite easily if they're the problem or not. -
Good point, I think my open ended spanners run to 19mm, after that it's offset ring spanners up to 38mm. I think when I did this to my Golf, I managed to use some adjustables, but that was the one under the car, so there was more room. I should probably go and get a 22mm open ended ahead of this job.

Made some checks, wiring looks intact. Pins 1 and 2 measure 12v when engine is running. I did try to find a pin out to check the sensor with a meter. I've ordered the NGK sensor by using the list of aftermarket part numbers which was supplied in your link. I ordered mine from Cartech-One. The usual places like ECP and GSF weren't particularly helpful with this. TPS wanted about £200 for one!

Thank you. I will take a look at the wiring and the information.

That's a pre cat sensor isn't it. Can only find post cat sensors on the usual parts places, so this may be a dealer only part!

Hello. I need to replace the lambda sensor on our Fabia, I'm wondering if anyone here has used an aftermarket one, rather than the main dealer priced one? I can't see what the difference would be in manufacturers at this point. Thanks.
-
Ah I see, that explains the cam sensor location then.
-
Is this an over head valve engine? Sorry, not too familiar with this particular engine.
-
No problem at all. I've just taken a look and it actually is a 53mm bolt. But it's certainly long enough and that's what came off our BBZ engine.

I've only ever done it with Vag Tacho. The garage might have something similar.
-
I don't think VCDC will do it. Vag Tacho will, but I think that still only works on Windows XP.

No it's a lot longer than that, I still have the original, I'll check the legnth tomorrow. I think the 10N suggests a part has been superceded, I'm not certain though, but I think that prefix is for a superceded part.
