Hi all

For the last few days my EML light has come on. I reset it, thinking it may have been a random occurrence. Anyway the fault is back. Done a scan on VCDS and its showing fault on the lambda on both banks:

The faults suggest the problem maybe located in an area common to all the sensors, but I have no idea where to start looking

Any ideas where to start ?

Thanks for any help

I’d say the sensor itself, it’s the pre cat one I think giving the fault. There’s info on here that confirms which one and side that sensor is. I had the same fault but with the post cat sensor
