BMW 320I - NOX SENSOR - moc1

Garage have recommended replacing above on a 59 plate 19k mileage .

Should I go ahead or ask for a re-set first to see if fault comes back ?

Would the NOX replacement improve mpg and general running ?

Any advice much appreciated.

You don't say what your problem is but a sensor is highly unlikely to be faulty. Garages commonly misdiagnose because of a basic misunderstanding of the engine management system.

How exactly does an engine control unit differentiate between a sensor that is giving a poor reading because of an engine running problem, and a sensor giving a poor reading because the sensor is at fault. The fact is it cannot, and this is why sensors are changed but rarely cure the problem.
