Yeah, needed new lambda mate!

..the air flow meter came up on the last test so had that replaced but it failed again, today the MOTer said he'd replaced so many corsa lambdas recently, he put a new one on and flew through the emissions!

I'm so chuffed to have my car back, and it's actually running so noticeably well now! Good fun.

Mine had a new lambda when they had finished the crash repair - got paid for by the insurance

May be mine would have failed its MOT if I hadn't had my crash
