i need some advice please...
just been to vauxhall who said the right LAMBDA/o2 sensor for my car is this one, and they showed me it, 3 wire WHITE - WHITE - BLACK;

HOWEVER, this is my current one and you can see the connector is different and also the wire colours!! mine has a RED - BLACK - PURPLE;

This is the Connector and Loom in the car, the wire colours here as you can see are; RED/BLUE - BROWN - BLACK thick wire which turns to blue at the connector!
