Look down the back of the engine where the exhaust manifold joins the exhaust pipe. The sensor looks like a spark plug screwed into the first part of the exhaust with a lead coming across to it's connector in the left hand side of the engine bay.

HTH.

thanks thought it was that bit but wasn't 100% sure i looked yesterday and saw what looked like the spark plug was just a bit confused front and rear so that's sorted that one now just need to source the part as volvo are quoting £300+ which is ridiculous the car only cost 800 and i have spent 300 on it all ready

I had one last week for £107 delivered within 24 hours. A genuine Denso part not
an OEM or universal.

Just recently changed mine on a V70 N/A MY2000 and it cost me £106 for a genuine Denso probe, if you need details of the e-bay shop I got it from post back as they had around 100 different O2 probes listed for Volvo - Mine was the dearest........ - Mike
