B230FK... downside to having many Volvos and rushing XD Lambda sensor was a nightmare! why do they put them down there? :P I know the cable shroud had melted, but the cables themselves where hard and brittle and completely melted away and shorted out at the base of the sensor, don't buy cheap sensors! took a while to swap, couldn't see the top of the drive for the snow storm! but it made the world of difference, starts normally instead of acting like its running on 2 cylinders, hopefully Friday the new crank position sensor fuel filter and water pump gasket arrives and all should be good again! well good apart from the buggered exhaust
