It's under the dashboard. First you must dismount the accelerator pedal
(!), remove some dashboard plastic on driver side. The filter is
somewhere behind the central console.
I think it should be changed every two years. Look into the manual.
The
company where you take the car for oil & filter change every year
must change also this filter with no additional charges. Of course they
charge you for the filter, which is not very exponsive.

V50 2005 and similar year have this problem.
The ignition key has two parts:
- remote control (with battery)
- RFID identification (without battery)
Car has two separate locks.
The upper lock is where you put the key inside and turn to ignite.
The lower lock is right at the steering wheel which electronically locks the wheel.
The "upper lock" sometimes refuses to recognize the key. It might be a bad contact or bad mechanical placement. Typical problem for this car.
Try hitting the dashboard and the lock with your fist few times (not too much!). If there was only a bad contact, the car may start a few times.
If you have dropped the ignition key from 1m of height (or higher) to the concrete, the RFID module inside may not have survived. Try with spare key.
If nothing helps, take the car to the volvo shop to change the upper lock. That was my case...
The lock looks like this:

If it's a 2.0D engine the diesel filter is in the front of the engine. It has a small metal protector over it for the case of a crash.
It is a black plastic "bottle" with two pipes on the opposite sides - left and right. It also has a connector - for the fuel heating.

Diesel engines 100% have EGR valve. It sometimes gets stuck if the car is driven only short distances.
