Squee Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 Hi boys n' girls! After I installed my BuddyClub last year the revs would fluctuate at idle and periodically the management light would come on flagging up O2 sensor problems. I had my DE Zed remapped at TDi 3 weeks ago and this light was cleared. However this last week the engine management light has come back on again showing the same DTC's as before. I've attached a couple of screen grabs from my basic OBD scanner and wonder is if anyone can advise on how I can cure this problem? As well as the BuddyClub I also have HFC's, plenum spacer and performance panel filter. I also have a O2 sensor spacer fitted. Has anyone else had this problem? Is this indicative of an actual problem or just a consequence of the higher airflow from the exhaust? And if so how can I make the light stay off? Thanks S.

The Chubby Ninja Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 Maybe it is actually a faulty lambda sensor. I had one. When it was put on a live diagnostic machine and the engine was revved the readings changed on one sensor alot slower than the one on the other side and that's how it was diagnosed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZMANALEX Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 P1288 is sensor 1 bank 2. Preowned sensors are in stock if required. Alex. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squee Posted February 17, 2014 Author Share Posted February 17, 2014 Thanks for your comments....I thought I'd replied to this a few days back but cant seem to see it :s Alex - I may well be in touch soon re the sensors, will check out prices of new ones and let you know Out of interest could I expect to see any difference in performance/mpg/anything once the sensor has been replaced (if indeed it is faulty) or would it just clear the lights on the dash? Thanks again S. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
