Has anyone had this fault on their car, I've cleared it but reappeared, it is going in Audi next week but just wanted to have an insight.

I've done some more research and it seems like the lambda/oxygen sensor on the cat seems to be the issue, will try that as seems to be a common issue.

Yes, I had this issue in 2018 autumn, Audi changed it but in 2019 autumn it appeared again, Audi cleared it, after driving 1000km distance code appeared again after I refilled 100 octane gasoline, then I cleared again a code now driving almost 2000km no issues, it can be a glitch, if a real problem would be code would appear right after your clear it. Also it can be an leak in a exhaust or something, sometimes octane too good for a car.
