Think it's be interesting to see, what the cost is like of the OEM one outside of the UK.

Do the Cats Direct ones come with the connectors, or do you have to solder them?

Also, are the primary and secondary sensors different, other than maybe the length of the wiring? I just emailed a request through to lambdasensor.com, with the part number for the secondary one, and they said it's not listed with their suppliers.

My Ebay one doesn't seem to be working, but I'm not convinced it's a problem with the sensor just yet. Think the cat may be at fault.

Any ideas anyone?

Guessing they need soldering, since it's a universal one.

Fat lot of good the search is when it comes back with the wrong part number. Have now emailed a request with the correct one. Will see what they come back with.

Only once! A lot of 50-60mph and it was VERY empty! I usually get 320ish easily on motorway runs, but only seem to get 280 these days.

Already flucking ordered mine!

For reference though, their equivalent one for the secondary sensor (NOT the primary one shepp bought) is part number 250-24121 on this page:

http://www.ecolambda.co.uk/main/eco.htm

I'm still unsure how different the primary and secondary ones are. I'm assuming they are either identical, or the wire length or connector might be different.
