as long as the lamda is in place you wont do any damage to the car, it'll just sound really LOUD!!!! A dodgy quick temporary repair if the hole isn't too big is to fold over loads of tinfoil, wrap it around the pipe, over the hole, and secure with some hose clips

You're scarily clever. Can I hang around with you for a while in the hopes that some of your car knowledge will rub off? It interests me, just no one is ever around to explain what everything does, and in a really really scary fashion, I know more about cars than any of my friends (i.e. I'm the only one who knows how to change a tyre)
I think it's a series 2...it's a 51 plate. That exhaust bit in your link does look a lot like the part of the exhaust with the huge gaping hole in it (how that went like that without me realising is somewhat embarrassing i can tell you!), but there is also the thing that from your explanation sounds like it is definately the lambda sensor. Yes it's still there, but am not entirely sure what the thing is that it attaches to - will take it to the garage to sort that bit.
Thank you btw, I feel much better now I know what some of the bits are and I can explain a little easier to the mechanic now, rather than doing that dumb blonde thing of saying "it's making a noise"! |
