EGR valve
Hi all, sorry if this more likely has been asked. I had an engine warning come up this week, I had the car checked yesterday and said it was the EGV Valve. The car is not in limp mode and drives fine. I took it for a good run down the motorway for an hour. still drives fine. Engine warning still on. Yesterday had the warning message wiped. was thinking give it another go on the motorway.
at the moment drives fine. I know its a common problem. has anyone asked Volvo to get this resolved or is a new one or what have people done. :-( Volvo S60 D4 2015, 29000 miles. when I brought it off Volvo last year, there reckon all recalls were sorted. Thank you |

There was never a recall for any EGR problem, even though it's been a big problem! Get a hot drink, put your feet up and have a look at this... https://www.volvoforums.org.uk/showthread.php?t=221555

We’ll check next week to make sure that you’re ok.
By the way, when in 2020 did you buy the car? It might be worth checking whether or not in 2021 there are any recalls outstanding that weren’t when you made your purchase. The DVLA MOT history website can give you a yes/no answer and you should be able to get further detail off the Volvo website. |

i purchase my Volvo 2015 in End Of 2019.
the engine warning light was taken off, i gave it a two hours run on Friday just gone and so far finger cross all ok. think I might go back to S80, not keen on the hard driving. To be regret buying a S60 R-Desgin. |

Spoke to Volvo Dealers, there reckon all recalls was done, EGR Value and coolant was mentioned. So am taking there word for it. I rather have something in black and white or check ourselves, but would be nice if we can check all those recalls completed on our cars like the recalls coming up. Have no faith in dealers.
I hoping it was just the car needed a good run, i guess more often a good run is needed. as not doing that much miles since lockdown. |

The annoying thing with the recalls there is never any paperwork so you have no record of what has been done in terms of the person who actually owns it. I think this should not be allowed.
