#2ended up getting diagnostics done and was told it was a sensor not lambdr but some other one to the left of the engine 02 model. but when picked up it was a bit better but still violently shuddering, was told to disconnect and works fine now. asked if it was ok to run like this and was told yes so whats the point of the sensor?
