Hi all,

I'm interested in any sensor related problems that you have encountered on your Pugs
And please tell how did the problem present itself.
Mainly petrols

Thanks all

I have only encountered two sensor faults over the last couple of years.

First was my own car, 2001 HDi90, the fault appeared as a high temperature on the temp gauge, STOP light coming on at motorway speeds, then only intermittant, leading to permanent STOP light on.Fault was the green coolant sensor on the right hand side of the engine, under and behind the air filter box.

The other was a customer's car, engine management light on intermittantly, sluggish acceleration, lack of power, hesitation.

My mates scanner read, "fuel system lean", further tests showed zero voltage from the Lambda (oxygen) sensor, a new sensor fixed the fault.

If there is one already, then I'm sorry.

Don't remember seeing one
It would be useful to have a list of all the sensor faults that have cropped up.

Faulty engine temp sensor made mine rev by itself as the fuel pump rammed loads of fuel into an already warm engine.
