disconnect the battery for an hour. (not that re-setting the ecu does much apart from clearing the fault codes)

black soot= running rich

over fuelling,

i had this with my xe last year made half of the road outside my house black with soot.

could be the temp sensor thats a likely suspect. faulty sensor tellin the ecu the engines runnin cold and therefore pumping in more fuel, or could be an air leak on a vacumm hose,

could well be ur lamda like but the ecu should pick up the new sensor.
