1.6CR TDI CAYC Issues with Lambda Sensor P0132

[octaviadan]

Hi All

Having issues already with our Seat Ibiza 1.6CR TDi Sport....

Had the dreaded flashing coil light and associated limp mode. Took it back to the garage we purchased it from, codes read and came back with lambda sensor fault. Sensor ordered returned last Saturday to have new sensor fitted. Codes cleared drove up the road got about 3 miles and, yes you've guessed it.....

Took car straight back rescanned and fault code logged P0132 Oxygen Lambda Sensor Signal too high cannot be tested at this time.

Has anyone else had similar issues with their Fabia with the same engine?

Got to say that so far underwhelmed with this car especially the engine, performance and economy very disappointing. Dread to think what they perform like in an Octavia.....

Any help greatly appreciated

Thanks

Will your car not be one that needs 'The Fix'  because of the VW Defeat Device Cheat NoX Scandal,

so get onto Seat UK and see whats what and when the Recall Action is happening,

and until then you are kind of stuck with dealing with who you are now.

We've had no letter from Seat and I've entered the chassis number on the Seat website and that says its not affected....

Well a further scan this time with VCDS has revealed the problem......the EGR valve...

If I blanked it, would I still need a remap to remove the EML?

Trader I bought it off is looking for a cheap remedy as a replacement is going to be expensive mainly due to the labour cost as the EGR valve/cooler is right at the back if the engine and a complete PTA to change....

Check your statutory rights for buying a used car. If replaceing the egr valve is expensive this is not your problem and should be repaired properly by the dealer.
