The recall is
not to replace them, but simply to check that the sensor has been torqued correctly. If they come in from the top of the engine bay, then they need to remove the manifold (the part they require I suspect, is a new manifold gasket) to access the sensor. And Renault quotes a rather optimistic 1.9 hours for the job. Most seem to have been taking 3+ hours to do. So yes, most folks opt to leave the car, rather than wait. SO not bull really
Nissan do have a tool to allow the sensor to be re-torqued by removing the under-tray and coming in from under the engine (
much faster this way). And by all account, this tool (for the Juke) also fits the Clio. I know this for a fact, as Ian Suds got his done like this up at Park's (Irvine I think).
