My initial feelings are with the first fault (P2207), that this requires both an engine management ECU software update and replacement of the NOx sensor and / or the electrical harness - depending on the results of the checks.

The U1535 code is related and whilst in operation, the following functions are in effect:
  • Inhibiting of the deNOx catalytic converter protection function
  • Inhibiting of the particle filter diagnostics
  • Deactivation of the urea solution injection regulation
  • Deactivation of oxygen sensor regulation
  • Deactivation of the richness regulation in change to open loop
Suspect areas: Engine management ECU, Electrical harness, Connectors, NOx sensor, DeNOx system relay, Urea pump - gauge module.

It was an issue on some earlier vehicles with the Adblue system that the pumps failed requiring a new tank (as these are sealed units). I'm not saying this is the case in your situation, but I would get the dealer to check it out - for the charge of the diagnostic, they should be able to download an ECU update if it is required. If it is the tank, you may be able to get a good will gesture from Citroen if it is just out of warranty - but that will depend on whether it has been regularly serviced to manufacturer requirements.

When the NOx sensor was replaced was the car told it has a new sensor fitted?
This has to be done with diagbox (or another suitable diag kit) when a new sensor is fitted.
