K-tec advised me to swap them over first and see where that goes...?
The light went off in mine and the mpg is as normal so ill leave it just now and keep an eye on it
As i said, i drove home from work (4 miles @ no more than 35mph) in -9* and the fuel economy was 32-33 mpg...
The engine seems to be nice and smooth as normal so im now thinking it might not be the lambda sensors atall! Me thinks ill need to get this diagnosed :(
Im not sure anyone i know has one, i relish giving Renault £56 for an hours labour to tell me its needing XYZ etc...

You wont make a mistake buying a Renault Sport Clio, the vast majority of paid members have had more than one, they are just so addictive not to mention cheap to run for what they offer in the way of performance.
The equivalent on other marques i.e the Civic Type R's/Golf GTi's etc will be/are...
The worst thing was, after reading the story about the guy in the DC2, he was just like any normal person on here, any enthusiast driving "enthusiastically".
It could have happened to anyone, i couldnt live knowing i'd altered a strangers life indefinatley.. :(
I think the engine would have to already be a strong one to make those figures, as your aware they are notoriously hard engines to extract extra bhp from
