Lambda Sensor - Toyota Corolla, 1.5L, 2010
So the expense. 100 km. in the city = 15 liters (although it is winter, traffic jams, but still a lot) O_O. I got to read the Internet, many sin on the lambda probe. Well, I think we need to check it ... I went to the servers. After the question: "Can you diagnose the lambda probe?" servicemen looked at me with such a surprised look about_O that it seemed to me that they were hearing about such a detail for the first time. In the Toyota service station, on Kuibyshev, the serviceman said that if the probe was not working properly, then my checkergy would light up, and on the Internet people write that this sensor is not diagnosed by the on-board computer ... I argued with him:
- "If I just turn off him, then my check will burn? "
-"Of course."
- "Well then I went to disconnect ..."
The check did not light up. I never went back there. In the end I decided to just change it. I gave 1050 rubles. I unscrewed-twisted. Now the flow rate is around 10-11.
Attention, question: Where to repair the car?
I don’t know about your servicemen, but when the land is covered, it significantly affects the operation of the engine and the "CHECK indji" must necessarily light up, but if you turn off the lamp, the "CHECK" goes out after a couple of hours, since the "brains" start to make a mixture by average!
Yes, the check will not burn, the lambda is checked by an oscillograph, like, at least you are lucky that it is cheap, there are Toyota engines on a lean mixture that work, there they cost about 7 rubles. As for where to repair, I do everything myself, except for automotive body and painting, but you already know that everything is on the conscience
