activeviii Posted November 12, 2014 Report Share Posted November 12, 2014 Just had another fault kick in on a mitz outlander 2.4 2004. Been one of them months were it all goes wrong. Warning light on, then its off and then its on. Been doing it all month. MAF sensor went so Replaced that one then the value so a strip out and clean then back lash was out again so reset all them. Now light on again. P0135. I don't have the tool to remove the sensor but a test with multi meter shows its the top left oxygen sensor. Question is, will the two be the same as I was about to buy a basic and solder the plug on but then it got me thinking that they might be differant and mess about with the readings. There are two before and two after. Are denso OK as I really can't affort the £150 price tag Phil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onatangent Posted November 12, 2014 Report Share Posted November 12, 2014 If in doubt go to the main stealers and ask for the part numbers of the sensors. Cant imagine they are different, usually wiring length changes on the same model vehicle depending on location so can trigger a part number variant/appendix letter.

activeviii Posted November 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2014 I did wonder that on the wiring. All 4 are different lengths. I have found on eblag but not sure wether to take a chance. Also need to borrow a slot socket for ten minutes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onatangent Posted November 12, 2014 Report Share Posted November 12, 2014 There is a company that does universal sensors and specs them budget and premium and then by the amount of wires, £30 or so. Cant remember company but worth an internet search. Less likely to be counterfeit stuff to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

88b Posted November 12, 2014 Report Share Posted November 12, 2014 Chances are the originals are Denso or NGK , some of the cheap ones don't last very long. You can often get them out with a ring spanner if it will go over the plug. A little copper slip or never seize on the threads when you put the new one in, just don't get it on the end.
