Poor mileage S90-V90 1998

Hi, Why don`t you just take it to a Volvo garage to check the codes and fit the part that is causing the problem. Here in GB the petrol is at least twice your price and over a 6 week period of messing around with odd jobber garages decided to bite the bullet and went to Volvo. It had cost a fortune but the bill at Volvo was nothing compared to the rest. My problem was the o2 sensors and at 12mpg and rough running. I know this forum is more for DIY but when an expensive difficult to point out situation arises why not just get it over and done with and save money and inconvenience. The manufactures say between 60 and 100,000 miles is the good life of the o2 sensor. Mine were replaced at 99,000 it was the only single item that put my mpg back to 30mpg (2.5 European Model) Regards Keith
