- Walk through of the basic steps to change the leak detection pump on a 2007 Volvo XC70.
Shoutout to @jimmehdean012 for getting me on the right track with his video of the slightly older V70 XC. • XC70 Leak Detection Pump
The 2007 XC70 is a little different, and this video walks you through the basic process. All in all, only a couple hours start to finish.
Nice job - thanks for posting. I knocked this out in 45 minutes. A couple things... Bosch is the oem supplier for this component. As you mentioned, I believe your was changed because there weren't any hose clamps. I removed the original one from this car - Bosch with crimp type hose clamps. That was the other point - it should have clamps. Again, thanks for posting. It made my life easy. Cheers
Ah! Thanks Dave! That's great to know. I suspected there had to have been hose clamps there originally, it just doesn't make sense not to have them on such big hoses, so thanks for letting me know. Also good to know that Bosch is OEM for this! Glad it helped! Thanks for adding your comments so everyone else can know about the clamps now too!
These hoses should have some sort of "witness marks" from the clamps.
Totally agreed. It was obvious that whoever did this before didn't put any clamps on the hoses.
would it be possible just to remove those three screws without taking down exhaust and shield and pull pump (also disconnect wire and hose)?
Thanks
Hmmm. It would be really tight. It’s hidden back up in there behind the muffler and the heat shield. I didn’t try to get at it without removing things first, so I can’t say for certain. If you were going to try, I would definitely recommend really getting the car up off the ground so you have room to maneuver. Get it up on a lift if you can. For me, it was just too tight of a space to work in. If you could get it up high enough, you might be able to get it out, but I’ve never seen anyone do it that way. Sorry.
@@ProVisionColor mine is a 2013 xc70 and I lifted it up pretty high last night and took the three screws out and pump would come right out. Only issue for me is I had to break the OEM Oetiker clamps and not sure I will be able to replace them with the special clamp pliers as the clamps and hoses have tight access. Thanks for the video.
@@pgreenx Oh nice! Well done! That's great to know. It would save a ton of time to not have to drop the exhaust and the heat shield. Thanks for letting us know!
Strange how this seems to happen after you take your car to shop.
They charge a thousand to do this repair 🤔
Lol, right?
