Very weird that both lights are on. Should be 100% independant of each other.

Maybe try to check the resistance across each sensor by disconnecting them inside the engine bay.
They should all be the same.

Failing that check that the sensor wires are still ok. Should be fine because they are pretty heavy duty.
Also check that there is no build up on the sensor face. They are magnetic so little bits of metal will stick to it which can screw it up.

The hand brake light coming on intermittantly would make sense if your fluid was borderline low.
If it's on the high marker it should be fine though.

Quick question guys - I've realized lately the fuel consumption on my EP3 has been getting quite bad nearly being as sh1t as my Evo

Checked all the usual things and it all seems fine the only thing i can imagine can be causing this is maybe the o2 sensor has gave way? Just wondering are there any easy ways to know if the o2 sensor has sh1t itself or any other known parts to stuff up related with fuel consumption that you guys have experienced with your CTRs?

Normally your CEL comes on if either of the o2 sensors malfunction.

Try this if it has come on: http://www.k-series.com/tech_document.php?id=37

Damn haven't seen that light on at all, was hoping it was the o2 sensor so it would be a straight-forward fix but guess not :S

My sensor failed and was doing around 250km per tank. with new one replaced. I am at 240km half tank! Get it checked out. It might be it!

My o2 sensor.

When I brake, there are squeaky noise, is it time to change brake pads? Only happens when i tap it lightly. When I push it all the way down, no noise, brakes good.

Hi TonyxTony

Brake squeal isn't a problem. You probably have upgraded pads which will always squeal a little.

Check how much meat is left on them if you are worried.
