hi had my 2.5 v6 4 2 years now had no props till now lamba cencor on way ouy. will this damage ne thing . second thing is i am loosing water not out of car and dosent seem like there is ne i the oil. help
-
I would replace the lamba sensor a.s.a.p, and I would look at the top rear of the engine to see if the HBV (Heater Bypass Valve; the plastic unit with pipes going in and out of it) is leaking water. That is a VERY common problem! ::) ::) ;)
If it is, replace. ;)

welcome to oof tux21,, what makes you say the lambda sensor is on it way out, plus what it the other problem(s) :-?

First place to look is the Heater Bypass Valve (HBV), it tends to start with a slow leak before letting go, it is located at the back of the engine just under the plastic scuttle, two 15mm hoses on one side, one 15mm hose 180 degrees around and a vacuum pipe on the top of a 75mm top, leak is from the side. Sorry if (teaching grandmother --------) :y
