[net.auto] BMW Low Power problem, again

kiessig (10/28/82)

	Well, I finally had my 320i tuned up, as part of the standard
30,000 mile "checkup".  Someone had earlier mentioned that they had
their "Lambda sensor" (also known as the "Oxygen sensor") replaced,
and that made their problem go away.  Well, what they didn't say
is that this sensor costs $200.  And my performance is, frankly,
not much better than before.  It doesn't nearly die when I hit
the gas in 2nd when the engine is cold, but it still doesn't have
the power it did when it was new.

	Could it be that my mechanics are just incompetant?
