Bank 2 is passenger side and the o2 sensors are a different length. .  Well the ones I have fitted  :y
That said they are positioned in different places on the gearbox. .  Many need to check their lengths tomorrow now   :-?

DBW cars have 4 wire sensors and, IIRC, Non-DBW are 3 wire.

Passenger side, as said, and sensor 1 is the pre-cat sensor.

I've got a 0150 code so i'll check the wiring first. I thought the Lambdas were fairly reliable.

Yep, normally not a problem, except for AutoAddict's. ;)

Could be that the lambda sensor is seeing a rich/lean mixture due to another fault which is causing a lack of activity. If they'll come out easily, swap the Lambda sensor to the other bank and see if the fault follows it. :y
