Does Volvo rely on intake vacuum for crankcase ventilation like most cars traditionally do?
The engine will go into limp mode with high exhaust back pressure.

Diesels have little or no intake vacuum to draw gases into the CDR Valve engine 2007 emission standards do not permit crankcase blow-by to be vented to
the atmosphere. OBD-II engines require monitoring of crankcase pressure to detect problems associated with the closed crankcase ventilation system.
