    The advice I have is when your buying Blue Temp Sensors, buy genuine.

    Yes, it means buy it from VW. For the record, I am only going off advice I have read on the internets - but the claims are the non OEM sensors give the better readings. $43 from a dealer is hardly going to break the bank.

    Non OEM will be ok, but best to be certain with Digi's.

    Ordered my two sensors from Matt. I'll let you guys know how it runs with the new sensors in, and the earth connected for the lambda.

    Fitted the sensors today.

    I let it run to get the temp up and....IT WORKS!!

    Temp gauge working, no misfiring or stalling either. Less smoke too since the lambda was connected.

    Thanks again to all those that helped me find a solution to my problem.
