Struggling get the right lambda sensor ?

[Jim197]

Hi everyone i have got a 2008 reg renault Clio 197 sport, I have tried twice now to get a after cat lambda sensor for my car but can't seem to get the right one with the little plug, Bosch & ngk lambda sensor have a chunky plug, & euro car parts say they don't list another lambda sensor for my car? So what I want to know is which lambda sensor do I need? Lol
mine has a small 4 pin plug & it's the after cat lambda sensor I need, euro car parts have ordered me 2 now & both been wrong ? Is there something different with my car?

I had this issue when mine went. There's loads of different part numbers. Ended up going to Renault to get it. Was about £65 IIRC.

Cheers mate! I've ended up getting a universal Bosch lambda & spliced the plug off & used small 5A jointing blocks & put the original plug on, still got the emissions light so don't no if it's worked or not? Awaiting my diagnostic machine to arrive from eBay.
I am not even sure you can use joining box to connect these wires? I was clutching at straws as I want this emissions light to go lol. Going clear the fault codes & see how I get on

Not sure chocyblock is ideal for lambda sensors should relie be soldered on for the best connection, as for the fault reset unplug battery for a while just make sure you've got your radio code haha

[MENTION=4982]DanB720[/MENTION], what part number did you order and did you ring Renault up or go online? I have the exact same problem for my post cat sensor, got 2 from Eurocarparts that they state will 100% fit yet they don't!

 

[DanB720]

Part Number on the box I purchased directly from a Renault dealership is: 8200830903

Hope this helps.

I have attached some photos of my old one that came off (59 Plate Clio 200)(kept it for some reason) so you can see the connector your after.

Hi Guys, Did changing the downstream sensor solve the problem with the emissions light in the end??

Hi, still not found one that fits! In the end I cut off the plug of my current one and stuck it onto the new sensor. Still get the light though!
