182 Lambda sensor??

[Andy McCord]

I ran over a tyre yesterday that was stuck in the 3rd lane of the M6, checked for damage last night and its just left a mark down the undertray and a mark on the centre box, which i presume houses the 2nd cat, last night going home it was a bit lumpier till it got warm, but this morning it wouldnt pass about 40 mph till it had warmed up.

So am I right in assuming that the 02 sensor in the centre has been damaged in the impact and all thats happening is that once its warmed up it swopping to the map sensor?

Do you reckon I cold get it changed under warranty or not?

TIA
Andy

Sounds like it could be one of the Lambda's
No you wont get it swapped under warranty

I bought a new bosch lambda 2 weeks ago through Central Auto Spares for £40 VAT inc

It will be the lambdasensor. Mine was broken and due to that the engine cutted out while I was driving
