Replacement sensor put in and the SERV and airbag lights went off. Winner......... 200m up the road and they come back on again!! Bugger!!

Have ordered a new (secondhand) sensor this week so next week when it comes perhaps the blokes that fitted the seats can also fit the sensor krisdale?

Muppet!

Is it due to a fault with the part though do you know, or is it just something triggered by the airbag lights coming on due to airbag sensors?

Is that a definite diagnosis or just an idea? Any way to test?

Just today my 182 has started just bogging down low down the revs (2-3k), plus on tickover sometimes it hunts a bits, and also sometimes cuts out. When either starting to accelerate or when taking your foot off the throttle its also a bit jerky sometimes. Also a bit of a funny smell coming from...
