I think its giving out a swansong as its days are numbered.
Some hope that it might be better with a new lambda.I just find it odd that now it has failed i get better figures, go figure.....
Don`t know if you understand or not but the performance of the O2 sensor that you have that has gone bad will be ok when the engine is hot!

This is because only the heater circuit has failed which ONLY comes into play from a cold start until it is not needed when hot!
