Had a dtc yesterday, car is my mothers now, she was on the highway near a volvo dealer.

So turned arround and had them take a look.
Did the "manifold fire modification" (I have no idea what they did, wouldn't tell me) and supposedly cleaned (saw them use compressed air) the emap pipe. They adviced to have the pipe replaced but did not tell anything about why and when and even if itnis part of the recall.

They dtc's were reset, but back today.
I have MAF implausinle signal (low) so suspect EGR valve.

Is there any more info on the recall(s)?
I am seriously considering to clean out egr, emap pipe, banjo and intake myself as far as possible.


It's a 2015 d4 2.0 with 200.000 km's on the clock, no warrenty, I do the services myself.

I am an amature, do own repairs on my own cars for fun, money and expertize (have had way too many bad experiences with dealers, experts and others, most of the time it is my own confidence that's in the way, not knowledge and skill)

For example, last DTC on the Volvo they gave me a printout with a DTC and picture of a EGT sensor and told me they had to replace the lambda! It was useless to argue with them and I finally tested the EGT with nothing more then a multimeter, replaced it myself, bought a clone VIDA and the car has done 20.000 km's without problems till now.

I am not very familiar with the Volvo, so any help or advise would be welcome!
