Exhaust Sensor

Post by silverGPX »

Hey today i decided to get my 2nd resonator taken out as it was a 2" and the rest of my system was 2.5 and i felt it was limiting power, i just got it replaced with some pipe lol, so farking loud now. :twisted:

But anyway the guy said to me that it looks like your exhaust sensor is stuffed as my system is very sooty and it could be the reason that ive lost a bit of performance and that it could be dumping fuel and i must admit its been chewing the fuel a bit lately.

I had a look at camskill and its verrrrrry expensive, is there any aftermarket replacements?

Is there any trick like cleaning it etc?

Any help appreciated
