Hi welcome to the fiat forum.

lambda sensor is a common problem on fiats, you don't have to buy them from fiat any good parts sellers will sell them, it fits in your exhaust just unplug the wires unscrew it and screw in new one easy. the parts place will ask how many wires are on it so check first.

Well if it was me i would change it and see, or at least take it out a give it a wipe with a soft cloth, do a search on this site see how many people have simaler problems and it turns out to be lambda sensor

my spelling is terible but "lambda" is correct
