Scotty, 

First off you Rock.   

I have driving my GFs 2012 S60 Volvo with 84k miles.

I changed the oil and I checked it a couple weeks after and I noticed it it was low. I think its burning oil. 

I saw your video about if your tail pipe has black residue, well sure enough it does :(. 

Then I just watched your video about changing out the PCV value.  Do you think that is the problem? Should I use my scan tool to check for anything suspicious?

I googled 2012 Volvos, and yes other owners have reported the same problem...:( 

Cheers!

the engine could be running rich. Have you changed your air filter?

No, but I will check it out as well as the PCV :0

Every exhaust is black inside that's normal

Sad to say your Volvo burning oil is also normal lol

But check the PCV valve
