Default C0 level closed loop ?

my car seems to be running rich on closed loop,when i disconnect it,it makes no difference,its reading between 11-12 on the afr meter,it does go up a tad when i put on headlights etc.
Any pointers to look for?maybe dodgy pf09
cheers all

i have checked the lamda ,and seems to be fine

Your AFR is roughly what mines is but I don't have closed loop, it actually used to running around 14-15 at idle but the mapper didn't like it.

Did your used to run a bit leaner and now all a sudden it's rich?

spec still the same at mo ,msd380 chip,want to change.I'm having issues with prop alignment at mo,although hopefully sorted now.
Had to take engine out again today,to adjust clutch form arm,5mm.
I'm slowly losing the will to live with the car at mo.
