Description
The Lambda Sensor 1.0i is a crucial component for Citroën and Peugeot vehicles, specifically designed for models like CITROEN C1 and PEUGEOT 107. This sensor, located before the catalytic converter, plays a vital role in monitoring the exhaust gases and ensuring optimal engine performance.
The Lambda sensor helps maintain the correct air-fuel mixture, which not only enhances fuel efficiency but also reduces harmful emissions. It is recommended to replace the Lambda sensor every 60,000 to 90,000 miles, as it can fail due to exposure to extreme temperatures and contaminants in the exhaust system.
When replacing the Lambda sensor, ensure to disconnect the battery and carefully remove the old sensor using a wrench. Install the new sensor by screwing it into place and reconnecting the wiring. Regular checks and timely replacements of this component will keep your engine running smoothly.
