Code read from the ECU came back as lambda/oxygen sensor running lean.
Is it safe? Can pass the MOT? How can be repaired? another mechanic said not running lean but possible an electrical fault somewhere between the sensor and the ECU. Apparently a common fault on this model.
Please, any thoughts?

You will have to watch the o2 sensor reading to see if its going lean?
