so.... ran the engine after all that, and got error codes for the cam solenoids

So, I had to pull the crank damper, front covers & motor mount to recheck the base timing.
With the cams set, the crank marker is off

After all that, I ran the car with the Volvo software & still got error codes

Seems unlikely that both solenoids died as a result of the work. I tried cleaning them again, and checked the new seals for proper fit.
I've reached out to a friend who still works for Volvo, to see what he has to say
