not too many posts on this forum for the oil burners (as the diesel didn't come to US.) Best to do a search on the UK forum or google "Volvo diesel particulate filter", anyways, here's a post that talks to your question.

Ahoy there!

You may find the following from the Volvo Owners Club (UK) very much worth reading, but although the OP's question was 3 years ago, that they've either got it sorted by now or sold it, but there will likely be others who've bought a Series 2 or 3 C70's drop-top that may experience the same issue:
