DTCs P225E00 & P20EE00 via Orbit, - mmati8 - 09-16-2026

Hi everyone,
I’m looking for some advice regarding my Volvo D4 FWD, 2.0 190PS, 2019, 174.000KM
l scanned the car using Orbit and got these two active fault codes in the ECM:
  • P225E00 – NOx Sensor Performance - Signal Stuck High Bank 1 Sensor 2
  • P20EE00 – SCR NOx Catalyst Efficiency Below Threshold (Bank 1)
Timeline & Symptoms:
  • 3,000 km ago: After a long, fast highway trip driving at 160-170 km/h, I first noticed a gray ash/soot buildup on the exhaust tips.
  • Today: While driving, I got a Check Engine light, noticed a strong, distinct ammonia/urea (AdBlue) smell from the exhaust, and saw a significant puff of gray smoke under acceleration (which later disappeared).
My questions:
  1. Does this diagnostics via Orbit point directly to a failing rear NOx sensor (Sensor 2) that needs to be replaced, or could this be a secondary consequence of something else, like a clogged DPF or a failing SCR catalyst?
  2. Is there anything else I should check, reset, or perform in Orbit regarding these codes before or after replacing the sensor?
Any insights or similar experiences would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance.

Thnx,
Mati
