Sensor problems on my 03 disco
Thanks for the tip. I've got it ordered and the other is under warranty so I will have 2 new ones at the same time. The major cause of my rover issues came from a vacuum leak on the plenum.
SUCCESS!!! The codes are still there because I haven't cleared them, but I found and fixed the vacuum leak and have a good idle again. The sulfur smell is still there, but the new sensors and cleared codes should fix that. Thanks for the help everyone! There was a small leak in one of the hoses going to the top of the intake.
The good old service engine light came on last week. The code was p1171 (bank 1 sensor 1). So I installed a new bosch 02 sensor, cleared the codes and went on my way. Yesterday the Service Engine light came on again. This time with the following codes: P0171, P0130, P1171, P1412, and P0155. Some of these codes are the same as before I changed the sensor. Bank 1 sensor 1 is the driver side pre-cat, correct? This is my daily driver so I have continued to drive it with the light on. I can smell the unburnt gasoline when I'm at idle. My mileage has gone down hill fast. Any ideas on a fix would be appreciated.
here what happened to me. i got service engine light and i replaced all 4 o2 sensors, 2 front and 2 back. they are hard to get to, and you might have some problems unbolting them from the exhaust, my mileage is at 155k. then i also cleaned out my MAF sensor with special spray from CRC. you need to use the MAF only sensor spray, do NOT use carburator cleaner or anything else it leaves a residue, and deteriorates the plastics and then you need to replace for MAF. last time i checked it was $200+ for a MAF.
oh, disconnect your battery before doing any O2 sensor changes....important.
then my service engine light dissapeared and my idle throttle is much better and also my pickup improved....no problems so far
