I used the FiatECUScan software (as its free) on my 2.0JTS and there are
many Lambda parameters that suggest there are at least 2 lambda sensors,
maybe 4:

Lambda 1 signal (pre-cat)
Lambda signal 2 (pre-cat)
Lambda signal 1 (after-cat)
Lambda signal 2 (after-cat)
Lambda sensor 1 integrator
Lambda sensor 2 integrator
Lambda 1 status (pre-cat)
Lambda 1 status (after-cat)
Lambda 2 status (pre-cat)
Lambda 2 status (after-cat)
