89 - open circuit to lamda - check connections on sensor.

Right gotcha, just read a thread saying that is could also be the coolant temp sensor causing the 89. Is that credible, and if it is wheres that one? ;)

Be surprised if coolant sensor could cause, but lamda fault won't happen until coolant 70C.  Coolant temp on V6 is on coolant bridge, at the rear of the banks, under plenum...

135 - EML not working.

Usually spurious when other codes present....

So with 89,s connections looking ok I can assume that the lamda sensor is shagged, and I assume both of the need to be changed??

89 is sensor 2, so just that one.  But you need to meter it through - lamdas are expensive (and delicate!), so make sure it is that first. Unless you're nicking a couple from scrappy  :-X

Is 2 the pasenger side by any chance? As some of the wire cowling is off that side, although connections seem fine.

'But you need to meter it through'  Well that went straight over my head mate ;D
And these things are pricy? How much do ya recon.

No offense meant or intended, but I have always read and been told that it is not worth using anything but OEM (genuine parts) for Lambda sensors.

I know of a colleague at work who runs a Corsa.  Her sensor was replaced and she was pleased to have got in done cheaply due to a non OEM unit being fitted. The car was back in the workshop two months later as the new sensor had failed.  She insisted on a genuine item being fitted on my advice.  That was six months ago now.
