[s-cars] S6 Gremlins

[iain.atkinson at tesco.net]

Even at idle the code for the lambda comes back immediately, i have clened both the sensors but won't know how things stand until i get the coil pack conversion installed, until the S6 sits on the drive and it's renault drving for me. 

Thanks for the input
