Answer
you have to make sure the seals were installed correct did you install or Volvo dealer you need to know how to install seals you can make mistakes easy also you can have blockage in engine oil guides  or you can have bad oil pump engine   flush will not help .did you do oil changes on time every 3000 miles ? the only way to clean it the right way is if you have to much build up or dirt  i is to take engine a part but by that mileage you can get new or used  engine labor to clean that will be expensive
