I have moved your thread to the S40 forum where you are more likely to receive an answer

It will be one of the O2 sensors on the exhaust playing up(also known as lambda sensors). If you get the fault code it will tell you "bank 1 sensor 1, or sensor 2. This is the fwd and aft O2 sensors its refering to.
