A failing PCV system in the Volvo XC90 D5 causes internal pressure buildup, forcing oil past seals. To diagnose, perform the 'glove test' or use a digital manometer to measure crankcase pressure while the engine is at idle. If the system is clogged, you will observe significant positive pressure rather than the expected slight vacuum, often accompanied by oil residue in the intake tract hoses.
