I don't think you will have much of a problem to be honest. Mine went out after a good blast and new fuel. Never came back on.

In the manual there is a bit that driving short trips at low speeds can cause an alert. It recommends to drive 20 minutes over 38mph
Not sure if that is the same alert you are seeing. |

I’m very concerned that when the warranty runs out, I’ll be paying a bill for these fixes! I gather that there is talk of a group of owners suing Volvo. I’ll probably be joining that group very soon, since the D4 engine clearly isn’t fit for purpose. |

If the engine warning light comes on then there will be a stored diagnostic trouble code that can be easily read using appropriate diagnostic equipment that will point to the actual problem.

Mine came on at just over 6000` and was rectified by a software update (so I was told)

My car had 1400 miles on it when the light came on. Took it into nearest dealer who could see me within a week, 70 mile round trip who updated the softwear and cleaner “ an exhaust sensor” . Light was extinguished. Next time I used car, light was on again so have had to book it in again.
My questions are, is this a known problem and is it likely to be ongoing and seriously inconvenient, is it safe to drive the car and is there a proper fix. As this car has only recently been purchased I am considering rejecting it if it’s a big issue. |

I don`t get the impression its a big problem from the posts, mine came on towing a caravan halfway up France and didn't affect performance (a bit disconcerting at first) but hasn't come on since the software update.

The emissions warning light on my Mar 18 XC90 D5 first came on in Nov 19 at 11k miles. I took it in to the dealer who checked the code and carried out the necessary software update. All was good but light came back on 6 weeks later in early Jan. Back it went and this time the master tech removed the section of exhaust which houses the injector for the ad-blue and brought it in to showroom to show me. It was completely clogged up with crystallised urea where it is injected into the exhaust. He took it outside and pressure washed it out, refitted it, carried out a further update to the software since the first time and is convinced all will be good from now on. I have attached a pic of the inlet for the injector showing the urea build up but it maybe not be overly clear.

I had something similar with my XC60 when I had only had it a couple of weeks. Turned out to be Ad-blue crystals. Dealer fixed it under warranty.
