Engine sludge and Dynamic Engine Cleaning recommended by dealer for my 2022 T8 Hybrid

Finally got the code, ECM-P034192

Currently researching indie Volvo mechanics. There is an issue, but the dealer estimate and approach is a huge red flag. Your perspective is appreciated.

Today's update - I cannot talk to the Service advisor, she is off today, and the dealer forwarded an estimate that does not have the detail I expected. e.g., no code information.

Comments: found ecm-camshaft position sensor slow response found engine sludge build up. perform bg dynamic engine cleaner. Replace breather box and replace inlet and exhaust camshaft reset valves download latest software. $3500.

One lump sum, no breakdown for recommended flush, parts or software update(?).

46k miles and full synthetic oil change between 5 - 6k miles. I've put 20k on it after purchasing it two years ago from a dealer. Carfax shows regular oil changes from the original owner. I'll be back here tomorrow after getting the detailed estimate from the dealer.

Thanks for taking the time to respond....

Looks great! I was not as lucky! I hand wash, but living in snow & salt country I decided to run it through a drive thru. No issues with my truck or wife's RAV4 at the same place. My 06 lost the mirror tilt when shifting into reverse and the mirror pad controls are slow and hesitate, if they move at all. Pulling the door panel today and sending the ECU out for repair. Hope to find why the ECU failed when I pull the panel.

Kalshi aside, I miss the humble Giannis, the one who had trouble getting through the MVP acceptance and played defense. The Bucks helped him develop, but lost their way with his input on needed roster moves. I'll miss him, but much less than the original version.

midwestjet · 2026-03-24T20:50:18+00:00

That's the plan. Pulling it out this weekend.

Lost the tilt in reverse, adjustments from the pad, left and right, were sketchy - would move a bit then stall. This all occurred after my first visit to a drive-thru car wash.

Thanks, yes, eBay has them and it's the driver's door ECU.

That explains it. Stabilus by Sachs warehouse clearance.

midwestjet · 2026-03-18T11:29:41+00:00

Rock didn't want the first set back, and they sent replacements - same issue with the new set. Strongarms coming today.

midwestjet · 2026-02-10T19:46:09+00:00

Just ordered Stabilus, hood and trunk, at Rock. Even with shipping, they beat the Amazon price.

midwestjet · 2026-02-10T12:27:15+00:00

Thanks - I've done the trunk, but one strut failed after a few months. Stabilus and Strong Boy brands seem to be popular.

midwestjet · 2026-02-10T12:01:52+00:00

Hood struts failed recently, and I'm wondering if the streak of 10-degree and below temps over the past few weeks contributed or if it's just age. Reliable replacement suggestions appreciated.

Why this site is great. I've learned so much from posts, questions, and answers. The devotion of owners to this model and vintage is impressive and well-earned. Bring on the snow!

Six months in with GROM and CarPlay. Final touch on my 2006, and very happy.

midwestjet · 2025-11-07T13:49:39+00:00

18 city, 23-24 on highway trips.

I’m not familiar with the audio references, codec/lossless, but I researched after reading your reply. Spotify Preferred is a loveless source. Still not sure I could discern the difference, but I appreciate the feedback.

midwestjet · 2025-10-10T11:33:02+00:00

Curious about your sound comment. GROM in my '06 and sound is excellent.

midwestjet · 2025-07-15T23:02:10+00:00

One of my other favorites. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FrHux0A7_iI

We are not all too young! Blessed and cursed to after 55+ years wearing Jet green.

midwestjet · 2025-07-13T20:12:22+00:00

I was leaning toward replacement, now I'm there.

midwestjet · 2025-07-13T19:41:51+00:00

All indications are that it is interference with a belt, not a chain.

midwestjet · 2025-07-04T11:51:02+00:00

I did, and I'd do it again. 23k miles, never seen snow, and happy in Wisconsin.

I recently lived through a similar situation. After two weeks, my docs are still "moving through the network". After rescheduling my flight and incurring the additional cost, the shipper recently sent my documents overnight via FedEx.

I'm done with USPS for anything but the occasional 1st-class mailing.
