I did an oil change on our 2018 XC90 at 5k miles, these steps and pics should apply for any 2016/2017/2018/2019 vehicle.
[This thread is for those interested in doing the oil change, not intended to start a holy war. Head over to BITOG for that]

Tools:
- 17mm hex wrench
- T27 Torx driver
- T40 Torx driver or 6mm Allen
Volvo Oil Recommendation:
Steps:
- Loosen oil cap under the hood
- Remove the skid plate (10 T27 Torx screws, plus two spring loaded inserts)
- Remove the oil drain plug (17mm hex bolt)
- Drain oil into suitable container
- Replace the drain bolt with new crush washer, tighten slightly past 'snug'
- Optionally remove the T40/6mm bolt from bottom of filter housing (to drain initial oil in filter) [Either T40 Torx or 6mm Allen wrench will fit]
- Remove the filter housing with the Volvo oil wrench
- Replace the filter within the housing
- Replace the large o-ring on the housing
- Replace the small o-ring on the T40/Allen bolt (bottom of filter housing) [If you removed the bolt]
- Apply oil to all o-rings!
- Replace the T40/6mm bolt [if you removed it]
- Screw in the filter & housing back into engine, I had to use the wrench again. Do not tighten very much! Let the o-ring do the work.
- Replace skid plate
- Fill engine with 6.2qt of specified oil
