cjk Posted July 2, 2009 Posted July 2, 2009 my reader picked up the 1131 code(obd11) Front oxygen sensor circuit malfunction (short circuit) is it just(wallet twitches) a replacement needed or is there a possibility of a wiring fault....with the mention of short circuit ta,Colin

IIRC they arent hugely expensive. PS that wallet twitches when someone mentions "its your round" ;) Edited July 2, 2009 by Gus the Bus

IIRC they arent hugely expensive. PS that wallet twitches when someone mentions "its your round" £290 and thats fi the local motor factors ! keep my eye on ebay i think for a few weeks at least. Are the front and rear sensors the same ? Edited July 3, 2009 by CJK
gus the bus Posted July 3, 2009 Posted July 3, 2009 £290 and thats fi the local motor factors ! thats daylight robbery!!!! the last one I bought was £69 IIRC Mind you, if its sorts the problem then I'd be biting the bullet. Have you thought about the fact that with this code the car might be running in "limp mode" hence why you are getting little boost!!?

Na Gus,its still a quick ish motor comparing to n/a cars,obviously its not running how it should with a duff oxy/lambda sensor.How does yours feel coming on boost...is it a defo shove in the kidneys or what?

Not quite as oooyaaa as the Impreza but not far off I'm saying about the "limp mode" because I know when the one time the Fozzy threw a code there was deffo a significant drop in boost until I flashed the code
