MrFLORY Posted December 29, 2017 Report Share Posted December 29, 2017 Hi there! Don’t take this as gospel but I’m almost certain it’s got to be the 190 vvtli specific sensor as the one for the 140 is slightly shorter from what I remember when I changed mine a few years back. Also there’s 2 sensors pre and post cat. Hope this helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spannermac Posted December 30, 2017 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2017 Just had a quick look on Euro car parts and they are both same part number... Can onky guess meaning same type so gonna take a punt i think see how it goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrFLORY Posted December 30, 2017 Report Share Posted December 30, 2017 Yeh it may be worth taking yours out and measuring it then looking on the Eurocarparts site at the spec for the ones they have available, it’s got the length of them in the description. I’ve got some old ones in the garage at home but unfortunately I’m not at my place at the mo or I’d check them for you. Let me know how you get on.

LucyLou Posted January 1, 2018 Report Share Posted January 1, 2018 I got one from Opie Oils. They supply OE Denso ones and not a bad price Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ams Posted January 2, 2018 Report Share Posted January 2, 2018 Cable on the 140 one is too short to fit the 190 - that is for pre-cat Post cat is the same Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mister_fcx Posted March 2, 2018 Report Share Posted March 2, 2018 Sorry to bring this back up. But I was wondering which sensor you chose to get in the end? I keep getting the P0420 error code and am looking to change the front (pre-cat) sensor. I've had a look online and have found two possible options - - DOX-0106 or DOX-0273, I think 0273 is for pre-facelift and 0106 is for facelift. If someone with more knowledge could confirm this?

LucyLou Posted March 3, 2018 Report Share Posted March 3, 2018 This is what I got for a 2005 T-Sport (so FL) for the pre cat sensor: 1 x DENSO Direct Fit Lambda Sensor - DOX-0273 - Oxygen / O2 - Genuine OE Part - Single Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're not too expensive, so I might change it for peace of mind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ams Posted March 10, 2018 Report Share Posted March 10, 2018 Wont do any harm changing it but if you have a sports cat with a low cell count then the code is just telling you that its not good enough Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
