same set up as me then ;)

i just think the sports cat doesn't quite do enough for the o2 sensor

wouldn't one of those o2 sensor fix things be better? (the one the guys use when decat)

Alex, unless i pay stupid money at MB for a star diagnostics, i have no choice.                           JJ, I have no sports cat, when i had that exhaust work done, i had a cheater ready for it, but he said i didnt need it, as the light was not on. Its been about 2 years since i had the exhaust done, with no problems.

Have heard that many "Sport CAT's" are fine for a while...but they all
appear to eventually throw up the EML (EngineManagementLight) at
times. I think perhaps because the CAT is just about enough for
the job....
So yeah...fit the 'cheater' or Cel-Fix as it's known.....
but do it when you fit the new upstream lambda sensor.
