... meant lambda sensors, obviously. Volvo doesn't have a recommended service interval but OEM is Bosch and they recommend changing wide-band O2 sensors every 100,000 miles. I keep my oil level a little low @ 60-80% of full/max to prevent the oil trap from screwing with the injectors too. Even though my PCV system is squeaky clean I still have pressure problems when it's all the way full. Oddly enough, the transmission seem to like being slightly overfilled. I guess the extra pressure helps those old solenoids open up or something, go figure.

so service transmission light went off today, CEL is still on, going to run it tomorrow, she still slips sometimes but not as bad. computer problem or what? its confusing me now.
I had the same thing happen to me. It was the # 3 shift solenoid/valve and I let it go to long like you. It would have been a 200 dollar fix. I parted my s80 out and got 4 grand out of it.
