lambda sensor faulty or not??????????

If you believe you have a problem with your lambda sensor, you can just disconnect it and then earth it straight to the body somewhere and it'll always read as if there are no issues.
If you still find you have a problem, then either your lambda sensor is completely fcuked or you have a different problem.

thanx rancid but i think the problem is likely to be the alternetor or the 120A fuse which is twisted coz when i was putting a charged battery the car was running fine and driving upto a range of 20km with full beam lights but i think coz it was only using power and not generating this was draining the battery low and coz it to die.whats ur opinion coz with fully charged battery car is driving spot on.

i'm not a mechanic i just know titbits of info that i pick up here and there
the fuse would be cheaper and easier to replace so i'd start there, if no improvement, then alternator is the most likely imo
you using an old battery or what?

there was an old battery but i swapped and put the 1 from my e39 which is near new but you know the battery on soarer's they are meant to be a bit bigger.so the alternator would be the thing thus if a twisted fuse has no effect.
