Bet the O2 sensor is goosed, try soaking it in white vinegar to clean it up, failing that just replace it then clear all the codes.

All petrol Fabias I've seen so far throw the purge valve code at some point in their life, clear it and ignore it, it's not affecting your emissions.

What happens? How can I block the code ? (purge valve code)?

Have you checked the purge valve to make sure it's not actually broken? The solenoid can fail on them.

I have nok checked, but if it is a normal fault, maybe I have to change after now: 130 000 km? Can it make some trouble when driving?

It can sometimes cause rough idling and difficult starting.

Not a fault code?

 

Result! It went in morning and passed without a glitch - so not sure what that says about the vcds fault code for the Lamda probe?

 

Thanks for all the help.

Yes, I thought that was what you meant, that you had a code.
