How do folks! Just stumbled upon this great site after searching for info on a fault. The wife has a 07 MPS non aero, which she has had for about 18 months. I drive an old mans 330CI, which cant compete for stealthy, performance. (makes mine feel a bit weedy to be honest) Anyway, i will stop choppin on! Thanks Dave

For last month or so, the car has had few symptoms: -Hesitating to rev/pull away, stuttering (usually at busy junction with a wagon coming) -Bit of a sulphur, rotten eggs smell now and then. -Computer says 21 mpg, and when i brim the tank it says 240 mile range. (was more like 29 & 400)
Engine light came on, so a mate read the codes. P2195 pre cat o2 sensor stuck lean. P2097 post cat fuel trim sensor stuck rich.
anyway, 02 sensors are £104 and seem to be a dealer only part?
Just got to get round to removing and testing them, as the pre cat one looks like a slag to get too.
Then the front end suspension knocking will wait for another day.
