Good evening, our xc90 at about 82k just starting making a loud squealing sound from the engine area. After doing some reading, I pulled the oil cap the the sound went away.
Unfortunately for us we’re on vacation and need to drive about 600 miles to get the car back to our house.
I know this isn’t ideal (at least based on my initial readings) but are there ways to do this without causing more damage or is this fine and we’ll just have to put up with the noise until we get it serviced?
Any ideas? Seems like a straight forward fix ( assuming it’s the oil trap/pcv issue) but we’re not near the tools or parts.

This sounds so odd, what was the resolution here?
Looking for a V90 to be my next Volvo, at the very least a T5.
