If you mean Lambda sensor then I think it is about £80 for a proper Bosch one (don't buy cheap guff, stick with OEM). You will need to vagcom it to find out whether it is the pre or post cat sensor that is muntered. Not a tricky job to replace it though.

Will the numbers from a normal code reader tell you what sensor it is?

If so I see your from Norwich and I'd be willing to meet you in Beccles to plug my code reader in if its going to help?

Are you sure its a sensor?

That light does not always mean its directly a prob with emissions. What code have you got?

VAG-COM don t say witch sensor is , i can clear that and is coming back after a day , when i look into vag-com where is the parameter reader and there is say sensor oxigen failed both of them and CAT.
when check no fault coming up, i will go later to my mate and plug vag-com:( again.

Have you had a high flow exhaust fitted by any chance?

hi m8 , i will try maybe tomorrow
cheers

That should be ok....Its only a fault code reader tho if Vagcom won't pick up the code then I'm guessing there is no code for my code reader to read?

Your welcome to try it if you want tho I'm free during the day and can prob pop out in evening for a bit if needed.
