[Mr.OmegaMan]

Would someone be kind enough to read them for me I've no idea how to check what the mean.. I made a video of the flashes uploaded to YouTube...

Thanks

Four codes:

P0650
P0420
P0430
P0130

P0650 Malfunction Indicator (MI) Control Circuit High Instrument
P0650 Malfunction Indicator (MI) Control Circuit Low Instrument
P0650 Malfunction Indicator (MI) Control Circuit Open Instrument

P0420 Catalyst System Efficiency Below Threshold (Bank 1)
P0430 Catalyst System Efficiency Below Threshold (Bank 2)

P0130 O2 Sensor Circuit High Voltage (Bank 1 Sensor 1)
P0130 O2 Sensor Circuit Slow Response (Bank 1 Sensor 1)
P0130 O2 Sensor Circuit No Activity Detected (Bank 1 Sensor 1)
P0130 O2 sensor circuit malfunction (Bank 1 Sensor 1)


P0650 - Do all your warning lights work? The answer from the video appears to be no, your emissions light isn't coming on, hence the P0650 I imagine. Someone probably removed the bulb to cover up the..

P0420/P0430 - the code that every 3.2 will get at some point. Needs the post-CAT O2 sensors moving behind the main CAT instead of between the preCAT and main CAT.

P0130 - Indicates a fault on an O2 sensor which probably needs live data to see if it's a slow O2 sensor or something else causing a fault on that bank.

Thanks 

Nothing too serious then  considering its almost done 190k

What he says above.

Long term masking of the codes may shag the cats, as that 0130 may result in overfuelling (or underfuelling, but the engine hasn't gone bang yet).

Fix it.

If it passes mot without any serious or expensive problems i'll try and fix everything that's wrong with it... If not bye bye 3.2

Is there a guide on how to do this and how much are these sensors on average, is it an easy job ?

Strange that its running perfectly fine with these codes the engine, I'm sure my 2.2 has similar issues but no pedal trick to make one worried  .

The Lamda needs diagnosis first. If its the sensor, about £90 for pattern.

Moving rear sensors, about £15 in parts, plus a friendly welder.
