you snapped the lambda in the manifold?!? what did you do smack it with a hammer?!

Ok is the probe stuck in the hole? If you can get some headduty mole grips onto it then try that.

Or has it snapped flush? if so your going to have to drill through the middle and get some broken screw removers, or a garage would be able to do it pretty cheap if you just take the manifold down to them.

Get a new lambda, citreon genuine ones are maybe better than universal ones. around £120 quid or something cheaper of German swedish and french or euro car parts but can they get it to you in time?

Just refit new one and on your way. Defo not a good idea to drive without a lambda
