ive just been to vaux there and it was £23 inc vat but was talkin to one of the mechanics and he said the way its idling sounds more like an air leak, either way ive booked it in to go on tech 2 on tuesday and hopefully it will show up the problem, they know whats been replaced etc so fingers crossed it sorts itself out

Just go down scrappers and 'borrow' them.
I changed the entire lot of sensors on my car to confirm the cause. Cost me nothing but a couple £ petrol to scrappers and back!
