First locate the lamda sensor then take it off and thoroughly blow it through and then replace or replace sensor with a new sensor. all you will need is a spanner. Best buy the sensor on Ebay as they are up to half the price you will pay from dealer or mechanics garage. Mine cost 39:99 with free postage and packing (1st class recorded delivery) for my vw Polo 1.4 2000 reg. Make sure you phone the company who advertise on Ebay and give them your registration number so that they can send you the exact sensor for your car. The one end of the sensor screws in just like a spark plug and it is attached to a few wires with an electric wire block that just connects to the cars wires. :)
