A/f Sensor

[GalaGogsie]

Hi guys

Been having this intermittent spluttering with car on and off for a couple of weeks now but with no fault codes, i over took a van today on the way to Edinburgh and the CEL came on then went off again. Plugged in connectors when i got to destination and found it was Error 32 A/F sensor.

I'm no expert but i reckon this is the cause of the spluttering, Anyone know where the bugger is located and what the cost of them are. Its a 99 classic wagon

There looks like a sensor on the top of the downpipe and i think there is another in the cat somewhere?

Anyone any ideas

Is 32 not the oxygen sensor .

Top of downpipe ?

Would i be right in thinking that if the maf was fooked it would eventually kill the Oxy sensor ?

I'm sure someone will be along shortly to put you right.

Cheers mate

I had a look at that page for the codes . The maf is new so im hoping that isnt gone and i think the oxygen sensor was changed at he same time. I was going to go to nobles and get them to plug it in and get a reading but id rather diagnose and fix it without being reemed

im having no end of problems with my MAF so get the code thrown up all the time which is 23 so sounds to me it might just be a dodgy oxy sensor

Just an update folks

Phoned dealers today and got a quote for an oxygen sensor £127 + VAT, popped into local car parts dealer today and got universal one for £35. Got the one off the car and found that the internals were all rattling about in the sensor. Replaced it and car is now running sweet . Cheers folks
