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.
