The oxy sensor could be causing that, yes.

Id be saying clean the air filter, change the oxy sensor, and failing that maybe your cat.

if you're driving in pure city, aircon on, giving her full welly every set of lights, you'll see 19L/100klms without worry.
Just remember to check the display against actual consumption at the bowser (fill full, reset trip meter, drive, fill full, divide litres by kays and times by 100, giving you litres per hundred kilometres.)
