Thanks for that I had a feeling that was probably going to be the problem.
I'll check out the codes.

: Possibly crud in the bottom of the fuel tank which has now coated the
: lambda sensor and ruined it. Silicone car polishes will do this if they
: ever get into the tank. Many tanks have a little water trapped in them -
: as it's beneath the petrol it's low in oxygen and so doesn't cause
: (much) rusting. When you run the tank low enough, this can get picked up
: and fed to the engine. Water-soluble contaminants will concentrate in
: here too.

: Check your ECU fault codes. If they say the lambda sensor is dead, it's
: time to swap it. Not much else you can do.
