I found this site when I was loking up code P0166 and I found an excellent explination of what is is and how to fix it.
Thank you, and I will be donating.

Now I have a 2000 C 70 convertible and I have that P0116 code and P1132. Can any one tell me what the P1132 code is and how do I correct what is causing that.

P1132 VOLVO O2 Sensor Front, Bank 1
So it is saying that the front 02 sensor isn't happy.
This is typically not the sensor itself (many have replaced the sensor for this code and it didn't resolve anything). usually it's some type of vacuum leak. With the engine running spray some carb cleaner or some other combustible fluid around your small vacuum hoses...when the engine surges you'll know where the break in the hose is. If it's not this, it could be a MAF sensor that is starting to go or usually not the case but it really could be the 02 sensor- Start with the cheap stuff first.

Thank you. You know, about a year ago I replaced the front 02 sencor, and to my surprise it came out real easy. However I could not get my hand up to disconnect the plastic snap together plug so I sut and spliced the wires. Now I wonder could this change any reading? Yes the total length of the wires is longer now.
