5 Series: service scope

Lambda Sensor Replacement concerns the fuel, air and emissions system. Replacing a faulty lambda (oxygen) sensor. Improves fuel economy and reduces exhaust emissions. A lambda sensor measures the oxygen content in the exhaust and reports it to the engine ECU, which adjusts fuel delivery to keep the mixture optimal. As the sensor ages its response time lengthens and values start to drift from reality.… Lambda Sensor Replacement affects engine mixture control, emissions and aftertreatment operation. A sensor or catalyst fault can cause incorrect adjustments.
