300) then try the following.

I got mine in 3-4 days. Well impressed!
When you get them open them up. One is bigger then the other, you also get 2 washers but I didn’t use them.
You only need one from each packet. The smaller one screws in to the exhaust, the bigger one screws in to the smaller one
and then the lamba sensor screws in to the bigger one.
I made the hole in the bottom of the smaller one bigger by about 1mm - mainly because this is the biggest drill bit i had,
I wanted to make it bigger but it works like this so who cares
It took a few hundred mile (few weeks) for the light to go out. So don’t be disappointed when you start you car up and its still on
I hope this helps some people out!! If you get stuck PM me and ill be happy to help. Let me know if you guys think pics would be good. I think its quite straight forward so i haven't taken any.![[B)]](/forums/styles/seatcupra/oldforumsmileys/shades.gif "Cool [B)]")
On a less friendly note.
This is the second guide I have created. The first just got slated with "Search" - "Like this one". When infact there where different and mine was more up to date. Which left me thinking "Why do I bother spending all this time" So.... When i had this problem I could not find a guide on it. If you know of one on this site don’t start posting "Like this one" - "Why don’t you search" - cause I really don’t care. I could not find one so her is my one.
