Hi Peter - you can get weld on replacement bungs for the NoX sensors - euro car parts used to sell them or can get them from e bay the thread is M22 x 1.5 👍👍
@@patrickjordan7670 I know Patrick, I hate a job sitting to one side for 3 days when it could have gone out as planned. Maybe it silly but that’s me 🤷🏼♂️🤷🏼♂️
The sensors crap out on Sprinters a lot - there are 2. Ones female thread, the others male. Usually they will be flatlined at 1200'c regardless of actual temp & the eml will be on, with dash whinging about emissions. I use Hoffer sensors too. Generally, lads will have suggested replacing the DPF/ have replaced the DPF, have done 22 DPF cleans, torn out their hair & be ready to burn the vehicle. But not replaced the 2 sensors because feck knows why. I heat them red red hot before even going near them with the spanner - otherwise they're immovable objects. I also bang a foot of pipe onto the spanner because they're murder tight seized. Not a cheap fix as they're 300 odd for the 2 - but nowt else works.
They probably aren't 300 for the 2 everywhere else, but we have Paddy Tax here to contend with, so the local supplier is 300 for the 2. Online I'm guessing they're available from Poland for 40 quid - however we seldom have time to go looking/waiting for An Post to chuck them over the fence, so they're 300 quid.
@@jamesward5721 it is just sometimes easier and less hardship on yourself to fit good OE quality brands. Nothing worst than having to do a job twice James. I don’t know about you but I’m getting too old for that kinda stuff 😬😬😬
@@kennedysgarage3281 Speaking of getting too old Peter, today (sunday) we were doing the entire clutch system on a Discovery that's used around a big dairy farm as a workhorse. Entire vehicle's coated in about 4" of cow-5hyte, the interior looks like a vets bin. No garage would touch it with a barge-pole.. The other chap's friends with the farmer & told him to chuck it in here, we'd do it (ffs like..) and so there we were, doing the worst clutch, on the worlds worst vehicle, getting showered in dried cowdung all day. Compared to it, everything else is a doddle. But I'm still getting too old for crap like that.,. wouldn't let it into the workshop due to the filth, so we did it outdoors on the grass, with a jack on a sheet of ply.. The bloomin Effort..
@@martinfinbarscully4924 no Martin, Particulate & Nox sensors are just plug and play except if you wanted to do a software update. I hit this problem with a bmw particulate matter sensor video 😉
Thanks for sharing this, I have the same error code in my tucson 2019 with 43kms on the clock.
nice repair on the exhaust there peter , your some man with the mig 👀 👌. 👍
@@johnbickle4654 one of the last comments said that Nox sensor bungs are available on eBay. So I have just ordered a few for the next one 😉👍
The work on that exhaust, amazing!
@@bastogne315 thanks mate 🙏🙏

Singinging at 2.06 was nice. Was it Taylor Swift?? Great show as usual.❤❤
@@bastogne315 I actually had to watch it at 2.06 just to see what I had done 😂😂😂😂
Seems to be a common problem on the i40 , lot of people on the forums having trouble with this code

Good repair.They just don’t realise what we go through Peter do they?………

Hi Peter , did you have to code the new module to the car?
Great repair

I have done 3. Needed that pipe, around €480 from hyundai. I managed to cut one out with a die grinder and remap the threads, very poor design
@@alanswayne85 wow, it is an awful design. It might make approach a bit different the next time. Once bitten twice shy 😬😬
