CEL came on today when I reached Boone, NC and remained on throughout my mountain drive down the blue ridge parkway. On the way back home it remained on when reaching the lower altitude...until i turned the car off. When i cranked her back up the CEL was gone. The car did great all day, CEL on or off, I could tell no difference.

Pull codes than.

From personel experiance, I have had an intermittant CEL of late that is from the front O2 sensor [codes PO133 and PO135, front o2 sensor slow response and front o2 heater circuit fault]. No difference in performance whether CEL is on or off [just crappy gas mileage in town- freeway is fine]

Without getting the codes read you really have not Idea what the reason could be.

but unless the CEL is illuminated, no codes will pull, right?. do i needs to go back to 3500ft, find a Volvo dealer, pull the code?

The codes will be stored regardless of whether or not the CEL is on. Pull em' at whatever altitude.
