My fuel economy has turned to crap (just when I thought it couldn't get any worse). I was expecting a markable improvement once I had the T5 in, but it seems to have gotten worse.
I am going to replace the O2 sensor, but I was just wondering whether they're the same for ED and XH (as I have an XH ECU)?

O2 Sensors are the same for EB to EL in the 6 Cyl.
Sure your not just hooning around alot more with the manual :P Whats your current Avg Ltrs per 100ks?

Heheh I am hooning a bit, but no more than I did with the auto. I don't know the current average as my trip computer doesn't work with the ECU :(
(PS: "Coming" has one m )

BTW work out your average by seeing how much fuel your using in a quarter of a tank.

Were you gonna get a new one or a second hand one? I'd go new if I was you, they're pretty fragile.

I just bought one from Bursons for $85 or so. "NTK" - NGK's 'technical ceramics' arm. Now to put the mofo in with boiling hot headers....... I'll let you know if it changes anything.
