lovely interior mate, how much did you pick that up for if you dont mind me asking, im not too keen on the wheels mate, i prefer the standard ones but each to their own, if everyone was the same it would be a boring world lol, other than that cracking car, you looked so stoned on sunday, you hadnt been smoking weed on the way down :p lol

Looking good Nick!! :D
As for lambda sensor it monitors exhaust gases normally pre cat and I would say that yes it could cause a loss in power. Think I'm correct in saying that there are 2 in the LCR, front & rear.
Either way heres a good place I've used in the past.

Thanks mate, but what about exhaust gases does it monitor? is it mixture? It was an intermittent fault, but now it seems to be on all the time. I think i best get it sorted!

Yeh there is 2, on the LCR :)
 
I maybe wrong but I think it measures O2 in the gases, hence why I guess they get refered to as an O2 sensors sometimes. I've heard about a sensor being removed before but cant remeber in which context but am sure it has something in common with Blue Flames and Revo so may be wortth having a word with however does/did your mapping.

Yep there bloody expensive had to one for my VR6 before I sold it and that hurt but was only £75 not £103 like these. :(
 
Just had a quick search and it sounds like the 2nd Lambda Sensor (rear) is mapped out but not removed so sounds like would only be the front to possibly replace.

lol i dont offer my car out to everyone.... i would like someone i know to buy it as it has always been a good, fast, reliable car.

as i said.... as long as its an upgrade :)
 
Ok so today was spent doing a few jobs i have been wanting to do for a while,

First on the agenda was sort out my head unit wireing, When i was 17 i Mullerd my head unit wireing so all i did for the leon was run a 12v feed to it to get it to turn on, everything else was left as all my speakers are aftermarket and amped.

Here is the problem

Alot of diff length cables that need a tidy

The new wireing :)

Ok first job jone and now i can plug the std speakers in that are in the rear doors and i should get a much fuller sound (and i do as i have tested it :))

Second job was my front left speaker would sometimes crackel when there was not much volume. When my door when in for a new skin as somone drove in to it i noticed the grease monky did a crap job of putting it all back together again, but back then i didnt care as i was not happy with the car anyway as there was other problems. But now it needs to be put right.

Here is how the ID10T ran the cable

And this is what it did to it

I also took every think apart inc the cross over and re wired everything and it all seems perfect now :)
