hi all,

new here,
got a problem with my lambda sensor,
original exhaust popped a few weeks back,
bought a used 1 off ebay, fitted a dream,
only my sensor thread is too large for the new thread,
bmw say they dont sell another sensor for my model?
any suggestions welcome?
thanks

You might have to rethread the the fitting on the exhaust for the lambda sensor to fit.
I had a similar problem a few years back and rethreading the hole worked a gem!
