Default Whistling sound, check engine

When driving there is a whistling noise coming from the engine. The check engine light is on, not blinking. When the oil cap is removed, you can hear pressure escaping from inside the reservoir. Any help would be appreciated, thank you.

Not sure if your problem is related to this...

Does anyone know if the 2009 T5s are supposed to have the PCV valve problem fixed?

Your oil trap is at fault and is covered under a warranty depending on year. Go to the dealer.


2009 should, but you never know...

Yep, exactly what he just said! I just had this fixed today under warranty at my Volvo Dealer. They replace the filter housing and the PCV hose and it fixed it.
