1600 miles in France

'98 2.3 lpt anniversary. I'm just back from a trip to the south of France from the UK. The side roads are really quiet a great place for really enjoyable driving. However, as I left Paris heading south the Check Engine illuminated. When I stopped to fill up I checked the codes to be 3 and 7. I carried on with the display reading instantaneous fuel consumption. I noticed at 75 mph I usually got around 40 mpg and every now and then, under similar driving conditions about 25mpg (I was sitting in the seat for a long time!). On the way home the Check Engine light went out. It came on again in Rouen with the same varying fuel consumption. A new Air intake temperature sensor from a Saab dealer is about £60. Is this definately at fault or is there anything else worth checking first. The car ran great and even with this problem returned about 29 miles to the gallon. Oh, and it didn't spoil a great holiday...
