When you say to check if the tank is pressurised, how long do you recommend driving for before this? I assume it's not going to be pressurized from cold? Is the only solution really to get rid of it as it's a D4 engine? Is every S60/V60 on the road in the same situation? Edit: I did some research at seems some were suggesting that Volvo resolved a fix for the EGR problem in 2016, so any cars built after that shouldn't have this issue? Is that correct?

If Volvo had fixed the EGR problem, why did they check and approve a 100% goodwill new cooler, as the one they fitted 2 years previously had cracked and had a leak (apparently the final and conclusive fix).On further investigation they found the cracked cylinder liner. Check the MOT history of your car and at the bottom of the page there is an outstanding recall section. Seatbelts and inlet manifold recalls are the most recent (last 2 years). Knowing what I have gone through, with a 2014 D4 V60, I would advise to get rid, it has been by far the most problematic car I have ever owned. |

What I meant was, cars built after 2016 have an updated EGR design, or is that not correct based on your knowledge? No recalls listed for my car on MOT history. I really would like to hold onto this car, I've only had it a few months and have loved it so far. |

And why did they go to adblue solution in the end. I too liked the car, really nice to drive. However I have taken my blinkers off and looking back at the issues I just can’t bring myself to recommend the D4 engine. The problem you are experiencing could be a cracked cooler also (I had the same problem as you, but obviously left it too long)so I would recommend you get it checked out. I also had full Volvo Service History. |

Just wanted to thank everyone in the thread for their experiences with the EGR system faults. Had poor idle issues recently on my V60 D4 2016 68250 miles Volvo, with a slight engine hesitation under low throttle conditions, no lights or warnings to go with the symptoms though. After a trip to the main dealer, a seized EGR valve was diagnosed which required replacement. Having mentioned the issues highlighted in this thread, I requested whether there was the possibility of a goodwill gesture. Apparently the main dealer went on the Volvo uk system to request a contribution towards the replacement which was declined in full. To shorten a long story, having then personally contacted Volvo UK as the main dealer wouldn’t take it further, Volvo subsequently came back and agreed to a full contribution saving me the full £874.00 quoted to me.
So again thanks all as without this thread I wouldn’t have had the information to fight my case. |

A quick note to say my 2016 S80 check engine light came on again. EGR issue previously 'fixed' twice by Hatfields Volvo Bury (now closed). Took my car to Rybrook Bolton and Volvo agreed to replace EGR cooler again under good-will. My car has 6 service stamps (3 Volvo main dealer, 3 independent) 46,000 miles total.
So in summary try Rybrook Volvo Bolton |

I spent this weekend taking my egr off and cleaning it. It looks brand new but the valve is still faulty, it doesn’t close properly pin still sticks. I’m going to find a new valve and fit it myself instead of the £1400 my local dealer wants to charge to replace it!
If anyone knows of a decent place to get parts please let me know. Last edited by FreshPete; Sep 25th, 2022 at 21:06. |
