 6n2 gti engine management light / drinking fuel,

Hi guys, the engine management light is constantly on while driving now, it's also drinking fuel, literally getting about 35 or less miles to a tenner. It's also very harsh when you let off the throttle from accelerating or pulling away, making the engine jolt back and forth.

I've cleaned out the throttle body and given it a damn good spray with tb cleaner as I know it can quickly get gunked up on gti's, but it's made no difference.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Cheers for the reply, are there two lamda sensors? I've spotted one just beneath the manifold, looks like abit of a pig to change aswell because of the bracket in the way..
