  11. power surge

    The only code iam getting is for bank 1 lambda sensor malfunction! But am just thinking that's because it's running rich and throwing fault code with the faulty map sensor. As far as iam aware seat us Bosch, there the genuine parts! Never go cheap with aftermarket sensor, guaranteed to make it...
