Hello,
I have a 2000 W-reg K11. It's a 1 litre 16v, and doesn't have coils.
The other day it began jumping whilst driving, cutting out coming into traffic lights (but starts again immediately), and is running very rich, with a sooty tailpipe and a strong smell of exhaust fumes. It drives horribly and is essentially unusable.
I ran it to the garage I use, and they identified a sensor on the throttle body that has gone. It's the top sensor. The garage think the sensor cannot be replaced, and that the whole throttle body does. Is this correct? Does anybody have any advice? What is this sensor called please?
Kind regards.
