I should add that I'm not disagreeing with your comment as there are well documented know issues on E4 engines having problems with them. My suspicions were with it, but as I am not a Volvo or Ford technician I didn't want to offer something that I couldn't fully justify.
I'm just curious to know what the egr valve does, how it does it and why if it fails you get blue smoke.
