M57TU 330d decat downpipe & lambda sensor

Recommended Posts

I've been given the opportunity to buy a decat downpipe for a reasonable price. However, I'm no mechanic. How difficult is the job, is it a manifold and turbo out process?

Secondly, I've diagnosed a lambda fault. How difficult is this job?

Thanks

The lambda sensor fits into the decat pipe, you can do both jobs at the same time. For mine, i looked at the restricted access and predicted scraped knuckles. Paid my Indy to do it.

No need to remove either. I dropped the whole exhaust (breaking the car) from below. Remove the heat shields and you can get a long socket up underneath to access the two bolts on the exhaust. I think you'll need another person to stop the nuts from spinning from above though. 

There was no lambda sensor either. (2002 184bhp)
