My did the same replaced both oxygen sensors and still there so cleaned this and been fine since. Or may be one of the sensors you got is faulty.

#6: Re: antipollution fault Author: NICKST, Location: Little hulton (worsley)Posted: Wed Mar 09, 2011 3:47 am ---- Ye number 7 is the one you want. Wouldnt recommend taking the vvt solenoid out as there very delicate part and are the good part of £80 to replace. Plus it will have nothing to do with the anti pollution fault if that wastnt working when you did the diagnostics it would come up as timeing retarded. Leave well alone. Speaking from experience here lol.
#7: Re: antipollution fault Author: LilLew, Location: PlymouthPosted: Wed Mar 09, 2011 4:59 am ---- yes i know all about the cost of vvt lol stupid thing after this i am think it could be cat or maybe a dodgey fuel filter (probaly not tho)
If it turns out to be the cat what sort of price am i looking at all i can find is ranging from £200 - £700
