I have a astra estate made in 2002, it is the 8v club model. I have a light on the dash in which the manual says it is for the oxygen sensor but the emissions are ok. so I was wondering could it be the sensor which is faulty or something else ???? is there away of testing the sensor ?? all ideas and suggestions are welcome. -- xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ========================================================== http://freespace.virgin.net/bigun.littleun/ ===================================================== xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
yep does get clogged with crap drop it out and give it a clean though i'd check the connector first. as you sure this is just the oxygen sensor light? new one on me though. there is a site with some info on somewhere. i'll look later if req mike

ah that one. it a fav for getting its connections knocked, worn or burnt. or even rusted away. if they look ok. unbolt the beasty and if u can get it out check its surface plate (the bit that goes inside the exhaust) is not covered in crap. mike
