V8Q OXS sensor

 PP> I passed the accumulated wisdom of the list (three people fingered the
 PP> OXS sensor as a cause of his "surging") and he enquired about the
 PP> price.  GBP150 from Audi!

     You DON'T have to buy the Audi sensor, as a matter of fact
     it's alot easier to just splice in a "generic" OXY sensor
     than route the entire OEM Oxy sensor. I paid +/- U$45 for
     the Oxy sensor about two years ago, the original OEM
     "Audi" Oxy sensor was U$145 at the time.

 PP> So he'd like to be sure.  Apart from the ECU codes - any other
 PP> diagnostics?  Steady state voltage?

     There was a very good article posted to the Q-List a while
     back about Oxy sensors and testing them. It's in the
     archives somewhere.  As for needing a special VW tool
     to check the ECU codes, the tool referred to in the
     manual is nothing more than a simple connector that
     functions like a piece of wire.  If you want a few of
     the relevant pages, let me know and I could email
     you a scan.
