Thanks very much thats great

Hi guys, I have a 2007 octavia VRS 2.0 TFSI BWA engine. I managed to smash off the post lambda sensor after mounting the decat pipe with the lambda point down towards the road ! ( silly ... school boy error ) This was only after it was on for a bout 6 weeks where all was well up to that point After that I had P0139 and P0140 errors .. sensor 1 bank 2 slow response etc. I replaced the sensor with a £90 one from euro, no good. bought a £20 from ebay ... no good ... so I got a genuine one from volkswagan at £152 !! ... still no good ! - meaning I get error still and VCDS doesnt show the sensor or resistance at all From the connector on the car side I am getting 11 volts for the heater and 0.45v for the sensor, that appears to be in range. I have checked the sensor and I have 9 Ohms for the heater that appears to be good. The sensor side of the lambdaI seem to get open curcuit ... but I assume that is because the lambda wasnt plugged in whenm I tested it I have also tested the voltage when plugged in and can confirm the heater is getting 11 volts. ( So I think I can cancel out a dodgy connector and Im sure a genuine sensor is good too ) So Now I am left with wiring going back to the ECU or the ECU itself. My best guess is I have shorted out the wiring when I smashed off the sensor and possibly the heater wires has touched the sensor wires. and blown a track off the ECU. But I need to test the wiring to the ECU first before I venchure down that route. Does anyone know the pin outs for the Post lambda sensor on the ECU please. ...??? Many thanks

Ibe taken out and cleaned the fuse box. It had some water in it. .. cooked the fused box for 30 mins in the oven at 80 c. .. hopefully thats sorted it. Sent from my SM-G920F using Tapatalk

Hi and many thanks for the reply. The fan that cuts in is the main radiator cooling fan. I think you are describing the interior fan ( actually your description sounds quite interesting and worth remembering) Sent from my SM-G920F using Tapatalk

hi guys. Im ttrying to get my aircon running. First I had a high pressure sensor error ... which i traced back to the wiring was streched and croded, repaired that and erased the fault. mI have no errors in VCDS but the aircon does not kick in. Im trying to locate the aircon relay, if anyone could point it out in a pic, or tell me the relay number id be greatful. I have the v ersion 2 fusebox.

hi, having a bit of trouble with my 07 VRS. ( BWA ) found at 0030h last night the alarm was going off ... when I got to the car the hazards were flashing and the fan was going off. so i unlocked and re locked the car ( and said good night to it ) car seemed ok. In the morming I find the fan was still cutting in and out and the battery is flat. The main fuse box cover was left off ( as I was working on the aircon system ... but thats another post ! ) and it was raining when i used the car later in the day. I need help and advice please Thanks in advance for your comments.

I have an xtrons, 609tx i think. I only have the Torque app on there at the moment. I do use A2DP on my phone so that I can get spoken txt messages !

Hi ya guys, Santa was good to me and I got an xtrons double din head unit. I can DL apps from the play store, but which ones are best? Torque - for reading odb II Anyone else got any good apps to put on their stereo ? Thanks Matt Sent from my SM-G920F using Tapatalk

I want to know about this also. I thought they were h1/h8. I have osram night breakers in there ATM. They look yellow compared to the xenon s and the led side lights I have. Does any know if I can add fogs to come on with full beam with vcds ? Pre fl. Sent from my SM-G920F using Tapatalk

I've got the same sound as you

Hi. Thx for your message. .. I don't believe it was dirty either . they don't suffer from that. Just garage talk I think. For the money, I would of thought they would replace it to. But hey. I might end up changing it and the evap too just for peace of mind. Sent from my SM-G920F using Tapatalk
