Exclamation Check Engine Diagnostics Help

I have a 2005 XC90 2.5 Turbo.

Onboard computer states I get an average of 15mpg but when I refuel and divide miles driven by fuel added, it equates to 22mpg.

The check engine light came on a month ago. Did diagnostic scans from multiple auto repair shops with a code of P2177 (bank 1 lean). I have replaced the MAS (diagnostic reveals 0.83 mg/cm when it should be 1.0 thus the CPU is adding more fuel to compensate for lower value on MAS,therefore, onboard computer shows lower mpgs and triggering the check engine light). I also replaced the fuel pressure sensor, fuel filter, and upstream O2 sensor. Did not take care of problem and still pulls code. Took it to a Volvo dealer yesterday. Their diagnostic reveals the following:

ECM-212C (Long term fuel trim, bank 1 - Signal too high
ECM-21EC (Long term fule trim, bank 1 - Signal too high

Tech at dealer replaced the following to attempt correcting the problem:

Oil trap & attendant components, cleaned throttle & PCV nipple, downloaded ECM software upgrade and replaced various hoses.

They obviously don't know how to fix it. Does anyone know if it is a correlation between the onboard computer and acutual mpg, which pulls the check engine light???????

You posted this in the S90 section. You need to get it moved to the proper area of the forum.
