i have just had a c20let fiited to my gsi, had a few problems but sorted them out, but my engine warning light had been coming on a few times then goin off, no running problems or anything like that untill i go to boot it and its only sometimes it will like fart abit and is slugish, went to get it rolling roaded and tested to make sure everything was ok and everything was doing its job, anyway they connected up to see why the light was coming on and it came back to be the oxygen sensor. they said get a new one etc, then on the way back home everytime i went round a corner or over a bump the car acted as if it was out of petrol and started cutting out, but this hadnt happened before. so is the oxygen sensor the cause of this problem or can it be something else? any ideas...

no problems when it idle's,doesn't go up and down at all. yeh it judders when goin round a corner or over a bump then sometimes it will cut out. but it will start again depending on the angle of the car!
