With newer cars the issue is with EPA at the time of purchase so the different additive packages in the name of cleaner oil. The thinner provides better MPG numbers besides meeti ..read more

First time replacing cabin filter includes time for finding your way after what is obvious, two torx 24 -- ample space at footwell. A collection of small leaves dropping as the filter was pulled needed a vacuum run. A deliberate curling of the filter is a must for it to fit and slide back in to the housing.

Hello.
I have scoured through the forums and found a post about S60 seats but they are quite different from what I have recently purchased.
I have gotten my hands on two front seats from a 2017 S90 that I would like to retrofit into my Nissan Patrol. The seats looks very nice and are in good condition but I am struggling in trying to figure out how the wiring of these seats are done. Also as far as I am aware there is no airbags in these seats correct? I can not find any markings on either of the seats.
I have added some photos of the different wires and plugs etc. The drivers seat does hav ..read more

What has been your experience so far with the V60? Did you look at or consider earlier versions, say in the teens?
Thanks -
It fits into our driving comfort; we leased it first to ease into it. Without hesitation, it feels right with our existing V70XC and XC90 experience -- rolls away like water in comparison to our other two cars. I often take the rear driver's seat during family trips, no issues, relax, plenty of room for 6'1".
Neighborhood families are P3 XC90 fans; V60CC are rare. The under-the-hood is arranged like our other Volvos -- familiar and accessible. Oil change is same as CN ..read more

It appears that Volvo Service NEVER replaced the air filter at previous intervals; a circus of resetting reminder and a carwash can be illusive.
The replacement wiper blade refill is a smart design; the form and graphics on plastic connector makes the task a no-brainer. Yes, you will set the wiper-to-service mode from the center console before removing old part and installing refill.

Personally I think if it’s the right weight and synthetic and the difference of brand doesn’t void a warranty, use it. Or maybe it’s me feeling all of my 52 years, and life’s too short to dither and use energy on discussion and research about oils.

Here you go, this has fluids... but stubbornly doesn't address for instance auto transmission fluid replacement. It only, moronically, says "Automatic transmission fluid level, check/adjust". We all remember the P2 fiasco with "lifetime" fluid.

I will look at what the owner's manual recommends for 36,000 miles service; should ALL fluids change include this service?
