P0101, Volvo code ECM130A, is an intake air leakage, faulty signal.

Check the hoses and hose connectors between the Mass Air Flow meter and the throttle unit are not leaking nor defective. Check that the boost pressure sensor is correctly mounted and check for air leaks around the component. This DTC may be set by a blocked crankcase ventilation or PCV nipple or a damaged MAF sensor.

P2177, Volvo code ECM261A can also be an intake air leak. It may also be an exhaust system air leak, low fuel pressure, or a defective heated oxygen sensor.
