If turbo Volvo’s had piston slap then -

1 The piston slap did not really compromise engine life. And

2 The cure was probably worse than the disease.

Our 90 744 with piston slap was driven to 225K miles and only sold it because it was no longer needed - the woman I sold it to drove it to 275K miles before she moved to another state

I wish I still had it.

I met a guy that was given a 744 turbo because the owner thought the engine was going to blow up, 100 K miles later he was still driving it.

If the slap goes away when the engine gets warmed up, just keep driving it.
