It's the pre cat sensor, B1 S1. "Response too slow - Intermittent"

Tidied up the paintwork a bit

And finally fitted my new/refurb'd dailys (since the 14" rims won't fit over the GTi calipers)

First fuel up after the injector work
Despite all the times the workshop let the car idle to check for the oil leak and all the excitement I got at my right foot
The PoD was still able to get 6.1L/100km for the last tank!!

Bit of that going round, I had my first CEL today and it was one of the O2 sensors.
Coming up on 100k I think it's had a reasonable life.

30mm lower and how much stiffer??Attachment 16197

With a picture like that on the box, I think it's safe to assume a lot.

Cheesy ain't it?

Got the car back today, ride seems a little better than stock.
Also did the front strut tops and put in poly rings in the rear beam bushes. Haven't really gone crazy yet as the car now needs a wheel alignment.. Do polos toe in or out when lowered?

Then looked at the old shocks and noticed that the bump stops and dust boots were still on the front set! Going to give the merchanic a call in the morning.

I'm a numbty. Did an oil change on the car in preparation for tracking it tomorrow, but over filled the oil so going to have do it again tonight. No enough hours in the day to rehandle stuff. Running the daily polo as the turbo is off the red one, and I'm in need of some track action.

Over filled by how much Sean? Skinny tube down the dipstick and suck some out? Might take a while with a syringe but cleaner than jacking up the front.

I use this to remove overfilled oil, thru dipstick hole

Briggs & Stratton Oil Removal Kit I/N 3370025 | Bunnings Warehouse

With smaller 2-3mm diam drinking / irrigation clear hose.

It does take a while but as Gavin said, cleaner job.
