  12. engine oil for gen 7 gt.

    Yeah I see where you're coming from, but oil is the blood of the engine & the good quality stuff sits firmly at the top of my list. People don't seem to think twice about buying some tacky mods for £50, so I can't see why anyone would skimp on oil? The old adage - look after your engine & it'll look after you :)

  16. Help with emissions and how to put it right

    mine was overfuelling so I did the following

    Cleaned MAF

    Changed Air Filter

    Changed Spark plugs

    and it passed the emissions test which I am pretty sure it wouldnt have done before when it was overfuelling.

    Try this first but the lambda is a more expensive fix as there are 2 of them and about £60 a piece.

    Mine passed MOT fine when it was overfuelling matey ;)

    Good shout on turning down the fuelling. If i could get someone to test the lambda and say it was definately that then i would happily buy a new one. but what i dont want to do is buy loads of stuff and not sort it if you know what i mean. I got the cat changed under warranty and the front lambda changed and it made no difference. I dont want to change the rear lambda and be told the front one aint working right. Its really really bugging me now.

    Has it thrown CEL p0420 bud? I have changed both sensors & had a new CAT as well & recently it's thrown the code twice, so go figure? My emission results & fuelling are bob on though :blink:

    For the relatively little outlay, it's worth changing the precat sensor as it has a big impact on fuelling. Running too rich is going to waste fuel & eventually smoke the cat, so it's a false economy to keep the old one in.

  19. K&N oil filters £4.96 shipped

    Sorry chaps didn't realise these were the ones without top nuts. I've ordered 2 anyway.

    Meh just ordered one and then found it doesn't fit the gen 6

    FML :@

    Yeah it seems the 2.0 gen6 isn't listed but the 1.8 & GT4 are - the 2zz shares the same oem filter as the faff. You would've thought that if the 3sfe & 3sgte take this same filter then the ge would as well, surely?

    If you don't want it bud, get in touch with them & re address it to me & I'll paypal you a fiver ;)
