Had the same problem around Xmas. 2 weeks in shop. Thankfully was under warranty 497,563. I've already replaced DEF system, numerous sensors, air compressor, valves, computer systems and EGR Valve. However, check engine light stays on and Volvo can not fix problem. Throwing EGR codes again. HELP!!!!

Don't know how your truck is acting up but mine:
At first - it felt like as if the clutch was slipping then it got progressively worst. After few days - once cold it ran almost normally, after 80 - 90 miles, it starts to slip on incline / pulling up hill - I would feather the fuel pedal (few times) and it catches. It got worst and worst.
I first noticed it around Laramie heading out west, took it to a small Volvo shop in WY, few hundred $$ later they said the codes were gone. The truck would slow (slip) down to 35 mph or so then it would engage again and off I go. There were times where I had to pull over to a shoulder and start off again or even shut off / restart for gears to engage. I delivered in Portland, OR, pick up in Tacoma, WA, final out in Surrey, BC.I pick up in Aberdeen, Wa, pick up in Tacoma, WA - with drops in Billings, Mt - Truman, MN - Minneapolis, MN - Janesville, WI - finaled out in Goshen, IN on Saturday. I camped out in Fremont, In at the Petro over the rest of the weekend. Monday I started making calls. Vomac in New Haven, IN were back up to the end of the week, towing/truck shop across the street from Petro had no faith on their skill to properly diagnose / fix Ishift and the Volvo up in MI said that they could look at it asap. I didn't even know if the warranty on my truck (transmission) was valid at the time. I've heard how dealers are making what ever excuses to void the warranty but I guess, I lucked out.

I got the same problem. Please help

I am having the same issue. Please guide me.
Mine is Volvo d13 2013. It has 540000 miles.
When I had the problem last week I went to Dealer and they updated and calibrated the software.
Today I just started and in about 100 miles drive, I got the same issue.
I am now going back to the yard so that I don't get stuck on the road.
