Hello all.
My friend has an 850turbo with approximately 260,XXX km's on it. He says that "blow by" are some gasses leaking out of where his oil dipstick is. I'm not sure if this is a common problem on volvo engines or not, but if anyone understand this problem, any help would be great, thanks alot.

    Too much crank case pressure. Look for a leak in the line the plugs into the intake pipe from the filter, too much oil, clogged pcv, something along those lines.
