#1: Lambda Seal? Author: Steve206, Location: UKPosted: Mon Feb 27, 2012 3:56 pm ---- I've got to fit a new catalytic converter on the weekend, and need to swap the lambda sensors. Do i need to add any type of sealing product to them, or just screw them in. Also the the sensors are coming from a 180 cat to my 138 cat, will they be ok?
#2: Re: Lambda Seal? Author: Dan-, Location: BiggleswadePosted: Mon Feb 27, 2012 4:57 pm ---- the sealing ring should be okay on them i will have a look to see if the 180 and 138 uses the same sensors for you

Author: Dan-, Location: BiggleswadePosted: Mon Feb 27, 2012 5:05 pm ---- looking on service box it would appear the 138 with a motorised throttle bodies share the same lambda sensors with the 180, But I'm unsure weather all the 138 were built with motorised throttle bodies or not sorry

I'll do a how to if I get the chance. Not a bad job, just tight! Will give all the clamps a good soak tonight.

Author: Dan-, Location: BiggleswadePosted: Tue Feb 28, 2012 7:22 am ---- Yeah its a reletivly simple job made easier if you have drive on ramp didn't take me long, would advise soaking them makes it abit quicker to undo, also a quick tip on getting the exhaust clamps off is to use another bolt and unwind the clamp so it open up enough to separate the sections! Will get a pic later for you of what I mean,
