But it wasn't long before the first check engine light. Fault 2AF2 about NOx sensor. Support 0 - your fault, mechanics faults, check wiring or something like that. My mechanic checked all the wiring, double-checked, and made adaptations. Still, fault back after 1 week. Again 0 support. Not their fault. So this continued for few more weeks and my mechanic found the guy who took of NOXem and did the programming. The result is a lot of money lost, time, and nerves talking to this shitty support (if we can call it like that). Never recommend this piece of garbage. This all cost me almost 3 times more than programming + my time visiting the mechanic. After reprogramming mileage stays the same, no rough idle, no faults for more than 4 months already.

Sorry to hear that but it seems that there is a number of similar noxem issues across Europe in lat couple of years; it happened to myself as well as few other friens with n53engine. No wonder that it happens because the black box is definitely not a product build according to industrial standards, the cover is glued by white sanitary silicone and the electronic board with parts of doubtfull quality is insulated by a black asphalt which is the worst possible solution; on the top of that the probe itself is very standard Bosch lambda available as cheap aftermarket part.
As I compared that built quality to original nox sensor gen 01 I would say that appropriate noxem price should not exceed 30% of the original part; and anyway- the cost of labour required to get rid of shitty noxem exceeded dramatically costs of original solution with a full guarantee. A far as I am aware the current original nox sensor gen 05 is very reliable solution and together with updated latest software I-level works far better than first generation of nox system
