That is a cam shaft issue. The reason that they say that it might be oil sludge is because of variable valve timing. That system uses oil pressure to vary the cam activity according to the driving conditions.
If you have done regular oil changes on the car, I doubt that it is a oil related issue. You can take it to some place like grease monkey and have the engine flushed to see if that helps. What they are going to do is similar to putting 50/50 oil and diesel fuel in and run it till it gets warm then drop the mix and put in real oil. This is a tough one to diagnose without a scope to check activity on the cam sensor. It could be a flat spot on the cam.

What about it??
I wouldn't try it if you don't know how, (specially if this is what is known as an interference engine). Valve timing is *very* delicate and stray pistons love to chew them up!

SOURCE: had timing belt replaced in 1/2010 for 2001 volvo s80.

yes,the water pump should have been changed at the same time,BUT,and i keep saying this to all my customers,no garage will do any work that you, the client, dont ask for and if they reccomend it they are trying to rip you off.the original repairperson is not at fault in any way,as you cant see inside the pump to decide when its going to fail.....not what you wanted to hear ,but true.
best advice.is find a good mech and follow him/her around,that way it becomes personal.

Some computers have to be reset more than once for some reason and most of the scanners are equipped with this function.

Volvo s80. engine warning light comes on and off! just had timing belt thermostat and water pump replaced.

Something has been detected by your engine management computer. The next step is to pull the error codes, with a scanner, and pursue those results.

2002 Volvo s80 t-6

This is what my code scanner says:
P0234 Engine Overboost Condition
If you have a non-turbo model, then it's probably something else. It may be a bad turbo overboost switch. My S80 is non-turbo but I had an overboost switch go out on my Mercedes and it shut down the turbo but I had the same error message. Good luck!
