    Is Bank 2 at +25%? Check for an exhaust leak on that side - it'll let air in, causing the ECU to see it as a lean condition, and crank up the fuelling. Remember it's using the level of O2 in the exhaust to determine if it's fuelling enough. Even...

    It's trying hard to reduce the fuelling on the even bank. A new sensor does NOT gaurantee it's OK. Also needs the wiring checked. The 14CUX is pretty basic, A lambda sensor fault is NOT usually caused by a reading that's a bit out of range, but...
