Excessive Oil Consumption on newer cars, and longer oil change intervals, and the all too common poor quality on newer cars is most likely what helped with this fire.... From G The 2011 Volvo XC90, particularly with the 3.2L engine, is known for high oil consumption due to faulty piston rings, which can cause severe engine damage or, in rare cases, spark combustion issues. Consumed oil fouls spark plugs and damages catalytic converters. Immediate repairs are recommended to prevent engine failure. Oil Consumption and Fire Risks (2011 XC90) Engine Issues: 2011–2014 models with the 3.2L engine (and some T6 engines) are commonly associated with excessive oil burning, often blamed on faulty piston ring designs that fail to drain oil properly, allowing it to burn in the combustion chamber. Safety/Fire Risk: While often causing performance loss, extreme oil consumption and accumulation in the combustion chamber can lead to carbon buildup, overheating, and potential fire risks. Both G and YT are full of engines exploding from people going 10K and even 20K miles between oil changes. Ever seen the "just rolled in" channel on YT? Unbelievable.... ..
