hmm. your stalling issue could be caused by several things:
1. Engine management system fault
2. Fuel injectors partially blocked
3. Vacuum leak at the inlet manifold or associated hoses
4. Fuel filter clogged
5. Fuel pump is broken
6. Fuel tank vent blocked or fuel lines blocked
When was the last time your fuel filter was changed? usually when it does that it's time to change. If you have a jack and jack stands you can replace it yourself. It wouldn't hurt to get a nice fuel system cleaner such as lucas or 44k at your local auto parts store (44k is expensive but works very well in my opinion)
to address the headlight issue, try removing fuse #27 and spraying a water displacing spray such as WD-40 on the terminals and spray it on both the bulbs, hopefully it is just corrosion somewhere.
Good luck!

Yes, start simple. Is there any "shuddering" before the stall?
Check your vacuum hoses, especially near the manifold like previously mentioned. The car is 12-13 years old, and vacuum hoses and the methods Volvo uses to route/ connect them to components are notorious for failure.
Vacuum diagrams can be found online or perhaps under your hood.
Best of luck, and please report back so we may be of further assistance.
P.S. I don't know if you're in Russia, Comrade , but if you are in the USA or Canada, most chain automotive part houses will scan OBD II codes for free. They are not Volvo specific codes, but can generally be interpereted enough to provide a starting point.
