A malfunction of the lambda probe can be the cause of increased fuel consumption and rough idle or irregular engine operation. In today's article, we will talk about how a malfunction of the lambda probe manifests itself and what problems it causes.

Before we start, though, let's look at the lambda probe function and how it affects the engine.

The catalytic converter is located in the car's exhaust pipe, and its task is to reduce the number of harmful substances in the exhaust gases.

This device is used for both gasoline and diesel engines. Today's article will shed light on its function, distribution, and possible damage.

A lambda probe is a sensor used in all petrol engines with electronic petrol injection, although modern diesel engines are also equipped with this device.

But what is the purpose of the lambda probe, its types, and what about its lifespan? We will shed some light on this in today's article.

The car's exhaust system removes the exhaust gases produced during combustion from the engine and ensures that they do not enter the cabin. This system consists of several car parts; its other task is reducing noise and emissions released into the air. Therefore it is designed precisely for a specific type of engine.

This article will shed light on the exhaust system's composition and briefly summarize each component's purpose.
