Omega General Help / MOT failure emissions, high lambda

Petrol 2001 manual 2.2 saloon
Good on CO2 and HC but lambda reading varying from 1.16 to 1.036. The engine light comes on occasionally code 0420 emissions bank one. Omega 2.2s have 2 lambda sensors, I understand the first one does the measurement and the second is the German emission test sensor, not used in UK. My hunch is to change the first lambda sensor and submit car for retest, but I seek advice.
