I changed my O2 sensor at 112000 miles, with a non Saab 3 wire unit. This way I was able to change it out at a resonable cost, on my time table. The new O2 sensor did not change the performance or the gas mileage. So the old one was running perfectly.
If you have a stock exhaust system, a rotting baffle could have shifted and created a flow restriction. The catalytic converter could be bad, the converter can be inspected from the downstream side.
Injectors clean? You should always do this before going to the dealer if possible.
If your tire guage accuate? Cold when checking the pressure?
Did you check the spark plugs? Are they the correct one?
