oxy sensor klambda problem

Hi Guys

oxygen sensor (new oem) drives to rich mixture....10to1, 9to1.....barely idles etc

warm up normal...as soon as system transitions to closed loop goes rich,,,,unplug sensor and bounces back to 12to1 - 12.5to1...idle steady....been driving with it unplugged.....Car drives fine, cruising, under boost etc



Condition started "all of a sudden" a month and a half ago...while i was driving before the MD ice/salt/tundra came......thought it was the old sensor so ordered a new one.....same problem

I know not a tragedy....richer mixture is nicer pre-boost......however like the better mpg cruising and idle was a bit more stable when sensor was working......also just concerned may be a problem that will affect something else in the future

any ideas? as always grateful for your knowledge
