Try seaching here http://www.volvoforums.org.uk/forumdisplay.php?f=58 very good forum, I'm sure there are a few known issues with the 2.0d think it may be the dual mass flywheel, but not sure which ines have it, but I've seen plenty of info in that forum, (I've just got a 2005 S40 T5 and I'm loving it so far and found the forum very helpful)

I have a V50 T5 and in summer and on a run its quite frugal for 2.5 turbo I would reccomend one.
