Need a new lambda? Read this.

A B2 S2 Lambda as I found out from Audi is £140. However you can buy a Bosch universal fitment one for $50ish. All you do is pull the old connector/plug from the old lambda and attach the wires from the new lambda into the old plug. This is the Bosch part number: 15733 its called a universal lambda.

I had a new lambda fitted which turned out to be faulty, now I am going to return it for a refund but the only problem that I have is I have chucked the old Lambda away and can't splice the plug off the one that I am about to return so does anyone have an old non working lambda sensor lying around that they would sell me? Thanks

Hey Paa jee - You can get A8 specific after market sensors for about that much can't you?

Maybe Paaji! lol But Bosch are OEM fitment, Only OEM touches my baby

Edit: Amazon in the US also sell an OEM lambda for £50, which is still a £90 saving from Audi so I have just ordered this but to the guy I am swapping lights with in the US, he said he would pop the lambda into the box with my lights for me.
Edit2: The reason I have shipped it to him and not the UK is that they won't ship the lambda to the UK so you will have to source the lambda from the bay or get a friend from the US to send one over.
