1998 S70 Turbo T5 - P0133 code

Post by Timeo »

Car just threw this code and I assume it is the O2 sensor as all rubber lines were replaced about 6,000 miles ago by PO. Car runs fine, not sure of MPG as it is my sons car. Any trick to accessing the sensor connectors? One is completely covered by the airbox tube while the other is partially obscured. How much stuff do I need to remove to access the connectors?

The air box is all you really need to remove. Unclipping the main fuse box and pushing it out of the way along with removing the intake tube will give you more room. Spray some wd-40 or silicone on the connectors. They get stuck and can break if you pry too hard.

Lots of parameters are involved. However, I want to ask a little about the Volvo V90. If anyone has any information, please let me know. I'm so happy to hear about it.
