the lamba above looks all white, the one I took out of my car last night was all black. Any importance?

I think that was the flash that has made it so white, although looking at it now it is whitish brown, but definately not black. Sorry i dont know what significance that has, but im sure someone here will.Originally posted by SkiTim

@Ski, I think a sooty lambda probe is an indication that your car is running rich.

I have just replaced my original lambda sensor with a new one (thanks Nuvo
) and already have seen far better fuel economy. The car also seems to be running smother although that may just be me looking to hard into it.
Here is a few pic's of the old sensor.
What do you think the colour mean's? Running rich/lean?1994 Indigo Blue S2 coupe

Why do Vagparts have 2 lambda sensors one for the 3B / ABY Coupe and one for the Avant / RS2?

Going by the guide it says that the car is burning to much oil
. It doesnt seem to lose much oil. I usually top up the oil about every month, is this much? or enough to worry about?

Maybe the length of the cable is different on both?

Brian, Glad to hear that you notice an improvement in fuel economy that can only be good. Incidently, the item I sold you is not the universal LS02 type but a direct OEM replacement.
The guide suggests you are burning oil? I would have thought that topping up on a monthly basis is perhaps excessive. Maybe you have over filled? Just a suggestion.Comment
