Cool S40 Negative Crankcase PSI ????BAD??

I have a 2004.5 S40 Turbo. I thought a belt was squeeling so I popped the hood and discovered the noise was because the engine is sucking air through the oil fill cap. It pulls so hard it was hard to pull my hand off from over the fill hole? The car is running fine? Just turned 105K hyway miles. Has anyone has this problem, is it a Turbo issue?

Default PCV valve?

Do a search on "S40 PCV valve" and you should be able to find info on the extended warranty.

+1. It's a known problem that Volvo has a recall or extended the warranty on. There is a Chassis break for the warranty though.

Call here to see if you car qualifies...

If not get your parts from the link that loai posted or from Tascaparts.com and find an indie shop to do the work for you.
