Default S60 Check Engine Light

I have a volvo s60, turbo, 2002. The check engine light is on. When you run the codes, it says it is the front and rear O2 sensor. I changed both of those. Did not help. I was told to change the exhaust manifold gaskets. Did that, as well as the turbo gaskets. Light comes right back on, but it is strange. After you reset it, you can drive the car all the way across the country and it will not come on during the first drive since resetting the light. When you start the car on the second time after resetting, it immediately comes on.
Any advice?

Who read the codes for you ? What is the code/codes ? Did they use Vida/Dice ? if not you are getting the generic code not the Volvo ones. This is a big issue with using OBD11 codes and not having the Volvo spec one. I ran in to this a few months back and spent $200 on a MAF that did not fix the problem so i decided to go a different way and bought a Dice/Vida clone from China and its AMAZING . The best $200 i ever spent. You can not do software update but that is it you have the ability to do just about everything else. Now am not sure where you live but any chance you are in MA i would be happy to help you out. If not a trip to the dealer is the only way to get to the bottom of the issue.Or do what i did and buy the setup. Gl and post the code and ill check and see if i can help..

There are no codes appearing on the obd tool. The car runs well with the check engine light on.
