i have a warning light on the dashbord for the sensor in the cat
convertor. is there a way of finding out what is causing this without
spending loads at a vauxhal dealer just so they can tell me what it will
cost me to sort it out...

Watch me thru a kalidescope,
or even a looking glass
the view may be distorted
but you'll see i'm just an ass.

There's a section on fault codes and downloadable files.
Good luck
