Default Intake valve / manifold problems

Hi all

Reading through some of the posts above my problem belongs to this thread.
It seems Volvo takes no responsibility on this problem and I will have to accept my 5 years old V60 D4 became a scrap after 115K miles. I am putting this here for the record only anyway.
I am the second owner and the manifold recall has been done before i bought the car a year ago. Since then it drove 20.000 miles with no problem until recently the urgent engine service lit up on the dashboard. Car drives just fine, by the way.
Booked it to local Volvo garage and was told the inlet valve leaks and needs replacing along with the inlet manifold for the cost of £3,800, if not done then there is a risk of fire..
Now, this amount is more then half of the car's value so it don't seem to worth it, especially after reading a bit above it and it seems it wouldn't guarantee sorting the problem, or am I wrong with this assumption?

I would appreciate any opinions.

with thanks
