Don't know how to take the glovebox out. If the lambda can be used is it just a case of different chip and away you go ?

Cheers Gareth

Might still take a pic for you to have a look at,because I'm only going by the bloke I had ECU off saying its standard chip

It has started my car up on 4x4 standard injectors and 2 bar map sensor,does that guarantee a standard chip is fitted????????
