Henrik,
I brought it in to the dealer who sold me the car, who's reputed to have a great service department, and they told me that the noise is a normal one issuing from the fuel pump. While I was there another customer dropping off his car for service said "It's normal. Volvos whine." In the meantime I've seen reports here about noisy fuel pumps (in the V70XC, which I assume has the same pump.) So I guess we should get used to having the radio on until we're at high enough speeds to drown out the whine with road noise.
Apart from this, though, I have to say I'm very happy with the car. Incredibly comfortable and smooth, and it has enough pep for me even without the turbo. Good luck with yours!
