the sensor is under $10 and just unscrews.
It's a pain to get to though, because it's under the manifold. I've had a few start to play up like that on my last car (XF) and shortly after that, they would always fail and leak oil everywhere (the ceramic part cracks and gives way). Not sure if the E-series ones are the same though... |
