Yeah you’re right it is, but the oil burning will surely come to a head. The dpf will only take so much? We had a 2015 V60 VEA. Great car but then the oil consumption started. To the point every week it needed at least half a litre if not more. The EGR valve kept blocking despite it having had Volvo replace it several times in its past. In the end got sick of cleaning it out and the fuel consumption was getting worse so went to trade it in at a local Volvo specialist who we have bought many Volvos from. They wouldn’t touch it because straight away new of the issues, of course he did he’d been stung before. Bought another 5 cylinder Volvo from him and it went to we buy any car.

I suppose the point I was making was if you like your car but you have this issue It could be sorted without it been the end of the world in my eyes. We’d just had enough of ours.
