sounds like the air flow meter could cause these problems , are you using an aftermarcket air filter? if so try cleaning the AFM with something like brake disk cleaner spray (i`ve tryed this method and it worked for me)

These dont have a maf sensor IIRC

I took off the dizzy cap and its quite bad in there, needs a new cap and rotor arm, could probably do with new leads too, they dont look that good. I'm trying to find all the sensors and clean them as i find them.

The Seats are Genuine toyota corolla, the rear calipers are off a 5door corolla 2000 model.

Yeovil in Somerset.

It needs a dizzy cap, rotor arm and leads, could be that causing it. Hopefully they will tell me at the mot if its anything else.

Failed the mot on a few bits. Brake hose, CV boot, a bulb and the emissions. The guy said to check the cat and it looks fine to me, so i still don't know what it is.

I'm beginning to think it's the Lambda sensor

Most of the stuff is standard like all the tte kit, so when i bought her didnt really need to do much.

I spoke to the mot tester again today and showed him the cat, its not blocked or damaged but he said its worth changing it and lambda sensor, he's not 100% sure that will sort it but quite likely.

I don't know yet if i can afford to get it all done within the 10 working days, i might have to keep it off the road till next payday. Theres now a fair bit to do with this one and i run 2 other cars as well.

I changed the brake hose and CV boot today but the inner one split as i was doing it, i will just have to keep my fingers crossed they don't notice it. Changed the front anti roll bar links too as i had them. Gonna order the lambda sensor and cat later and hopefully they will get here in time, if it still fails then it will have to wait.

I've bought them on eBay, £51 for the cat and £40 for the sensor.

I forgot you were selling some bits. They are the type of parts i would rather buy new tho.

This car is driving me mad. The cat was delivered today, went to fit it and it's different. I've looked around and i cant find one thats the same as what i have.

I've decided to get a mate of mine to cut the ends off the old one and weld them to the new one. I don't have the time or the money to track down one to fit. Both ends are different and its a bit longer.

why is the new one so different? It wont fit either end to the rest of the exhaust

Simply because its not a toyota oem part. Paternt parts, especially exhaust are renowned for not fitting as oem, as basically they know that if you cant fit the one section youll buy the whole lot.

Youd be better off with a good second hand one if you arent changing the whole system
