can you give me a rough idea what it would cost to replace a catalytic converter, and is it possible to get one second hand, and many thanks.

From what you say , you just need new sensor , not a cat. If you go onto E-bay ,put in details and you will get an idea of price , or contact any local motor factor or exhaust centre and compare prices .Usually can save some money with a few calls if you do need one .
