There is a difference in backfires through the exhaust and what they are talking about. The concern for a flame trap has to do with the so called backfire through the intake. It is normally mixture related, and I have never heard mine, or anyone elses Volvo do this. The backfire that you are hearing on deceleration can't get to the intake anyway. If it did produce a flame, it would be out the end of the tail pipe.
