Update:

I called three shops here in town (Rochester) and one place that specializes in VWs and other German autos says they could work on this engine. Apparently it is the owner himself. I did not get a chance to ask if he has experience working on it or not, just that he can. I called the only Volvo dealer in town and spoke to the service manager. He said they haven't had anyone there in 20 years that would have worked on an old turbodiesel and that they never really sold that many of them when they were available.

The dealer sent me two service records - one being an oil pressure light that stays on continuously and was draining the battery. The other service was replacing the wiring harness under the hood. This goes back to 2018. I asked the service manager for additional records as it is advertised as serviced there since new. He said the Carfax will show other service, but that's all they have. Let's see if they come up with something else.
