    So first engine light fault came on in my 2014 volvo. The code is SPN153 FMI2 and FMI17 , Which is crankcase pressure sensor either too high to too low. Now, is it okay if I drive this home like this? Will it make things worse? I will be taking it to Volvo tomorrow because its under warranty. However, I dont know if they will have the time or not and on Monday I have a load to take. I still have 400 km to home.

    Average fuel mileage has significantly decreased.

    Please share your thoughts

    Given year it's likely just a sensor issue, might be bad negative crank pressure filter blower. That said post holiday in the US you're gonna see a heavy shop wait time. Can't speak to Canadian volvo service.

    Might be something serious in regards to decreased mpg but safe to assume if it was, you'd have a lot more faults than just high/low crank pressure.


    Assuming it's not misfiring or eating oil, right? What's the exauhst situation, blowing any smoke blue/black/white? High crank pressure could be compromised piston ring, but it would have the above symptoms to follow even with a dpf/egr system in place and a #### load more codes to go with it.

    If it's too high you might have a problem. Could just be the sensor....

    The oil vapor separation device on drivers side might be plugged or failed, giving high pressure which will blow out seals

    Its running how it should be without any issues. The Fuel mileage is back up to normal and just the light is one.

    Will be taking in to Volvo om morning. All sensors are under warranty :)
