Back to the OP....

The 2.4D is the 5-cylinder Volvo engine and did not have the EGR issues that some post 2015 MY 4 cylinder Volvo diesel engines had (even these have now all been fixed under a recall).

If you are looking for an auto - get is properly warm and check you can change from P to D and between D and R without any bangs or significant knocks, check all the gears shift ok with no shift shock when accelerating and decelerating.

Check all electrics - door locks, windows, buttons, etc. problems are rare but can be expensive to fix.

All usual used car checks - steering, suspension, strange noises, fluids, leaks, etc.

Unless you're handy with spanners and it's cheap - only look at cars with good history.
