In my case,hose from my sas valve was melted because of sas valve failure.So,when sas valve fails,it lets water in air pump,air filter and part of exhaust gases circulate without any control.Sas valve is circled red in a picture.Check all of the hoses attached to it.

hi Misha

Thank you very much for your helpful picture. I will tripple check that. Your volvo's engine still looks very clean.

About my Catalytic converter, I asked them to reset the code that day and it does not come up since. Hope nothing is seriously wrong

good day,
Nathan
