    Need help to order e39 lambda sensor

    Was looking to purchase a bosch sensor for my e39 as one of them has failed but cannot narrow down what I need
    The error says high voltage before kat bank 1
    So best price I found with free delivery is micks garage at 98 euro which is good price
    Does anyone know exactly which part I need ?

    Also the temp needle slowly moves over to the red and back to centre When sitting in traffic
    There is coolant and no leak so what could be the possible culprit?
    Any advice appreciated thanks

    Overheating could be a worn water pump.

    I think there's sensors before and after the cat, if you check out realoem you should be able to identify it from that.

    Might change the pump also
    Will see if it's OK
    Needle acts a bit funny so it hard to gauge what's happening but for Google it seems to be a common. E39 issue

    If its going into the red in traffic only also check fan clutch, just had a look at the thread there and its a smashing looking car you have there.

    RE: Need help to order e39 lambda sensor

    So regarding the o2 sensor as I said In original post ita bank 1 before cat

    So from looking on micks garage at bosch ones which would be oem quality I presume
    There are 2 I narrowed it down to
    The item description says
    " in front of catalyst "

    And the second one says " post cat"

    I just want to be sure but it's the first one I need?
    Car has four sensors

    2 x 990mm length and 2 shorter ones
    But I'm not sure from the real oem diagram which is before or after cat
    Thanks

    What ECU does your e39 have Siemens or Bosch?

    In these sort of situations where you need a part, but not sure which exactly or what type, you go to realoem.com, enter your car details, go through diagrams, find a part you think you need to replace and get a part number. Then start searching for it.
    So what part number is it? Or what year and engine is in your car?
