5 have a '98 v70 AWD (not XC) with about 65,000 miles. I get between 16 and 23 MPG (I only get 23 if on a long trip that's all freeway driving. Usually I'm around 17 or 18 all around. My check engine light is on, and I'm told I need a new rear oxygen senso, but that it's not an emergency. Would a defective oxygen sensor lead to decreased mileage?

How much do those of you who have v70 awd's or XC's get out of a gallon of gas?

as always, thanks
