Volvo engines are designed with a focus on safety, efficiency, and environmental concerns, which sometimes leads to lower compression ratios compared to performance-oriented engines. Lower compression can reduce the risk of knocking and allows for the use of lower-octane fuels, making vehicles more accessible and economical to operate. Additionally, turbocharging in many Volvo models compensates for lower compression by providing better power output without compromising efficiency.

Run a compression test. Unfortunately Volvo engines are among the group that are sensitive to overheating. I wouldn't waste any more time on it until you've verified that the compression is up in all cylinders.
How does Volvo engine brake work?
Volvo engine braking works by utilizing the engine's compression to slow down a vehicle, primarily in heavy-duty trucks. When the driver releases the accelerator and engages the engine brake, the engine’s exhaust valves are opened, allowing compression resistance to slow the engine down. This process reduces wear on the brake system and provides better control on descents, enhancing safety and efficiency. The engine braking feature is especially useful in managing speed without overheating the traditional brake components.
