Take it back were you bought if from and demand haif your money back

strange for all three sensors to fail ot once, try cleaning the egr valve and get another diagnostics done.

If you bought from a garage you should (legally) have a 3 month warranty. Whats actually wrong with it? It wont want it all changing. Are they tring to make some money out of you? Get a second opinion.
