- Watch as I take you thru the steps that an average person, right in their own garage, needs to perform to do an oil change on a 2009 Volvo S60 2.5T. The procedures should be about the same for any Volvo in this same time period. Feel free to let me know your thoughts and comments. I would love to hear what you do differently.

This a total dad tutorial. Thank you very much!
Thanks from Vancouver. Also thanks for the speaker change video!
Danke vielmals viele Grüße aus Ankara
I can tell your video is for first timers and dummys but I can tell you know your stuff, we use the same oil and same exact funnel and techniques. Much respect to you.
Thanks, I really appreciate that!
Very helpful best video I’ve seen for this specific topic
Lube the o-ring on the oil filter cover prior to reassembly to prevent tearing and for a better seal.
I always do. It's just total habit after this many years.
5.6 liters you need, I have the same engine - turbo.
Thanks my friend for the video. 👍
thanks! very helpful
Thank you very much very helpful!
great video, I have a 2008 same model, that didn't come with the shield, probably not good for under car protection, but it runs good. Great instructional video, are you in the instructional career field?
Thank you. No I was in IT for 25 years and had to help people figure out how to do things with their computers. I also wrote instructions on various processes.
@@FloydNashFixItDad ah makes sense, esp with people that need computer help.
Great video! Is it okay to insert the filter cartridge first onto car and then put the cap after on it?
The filter cartridge won't stay attached to the car. There is nothing it pushes on to that can retain it. For that reason, you have to put it in the filter housing or "cap" then put it on the car.
@@FloydNashFixItDad I used original volvo filter wich has smaller inner diameter so it stays there, and so I installed the filter cartridge first and was just wondering afterwards if something could go wrong using this technique? Probably everything is ok and the housing just slides onto it's place when tightened properly?
@@hilapizu5491 Correct, it really doesn't matter as long as you turn it until it fully seats. Doesn't need to be super tight, just tighten until it makes contact and stop.
@@FloydNashFixItDad Yes, thank you 👍
2nd you want to chock the back wheels because s60 park brakes are garbage lol great video mate greetings from the U.K.
The S60 uses a drum design on the inside of the rear rotor for the parking brakes. A common problem is when they don't aren't adjusted right, or if the pads are worn on the "shoes" for the parking brake. I've made sure mine are adjusted properly in excellent condition, and they work really well. You set the parking brake on this and you can drag the car down the road but those wheels won't spin.
@@FloydNashFixItDad Hi, could you film a video regarding this adjustment? Thank you so much!
Looks like you managed to record this without jacking the car up? I'm surprised there's enough clearance; I might try it myself next time though!
Oh it definitely needs jacked up at least on one corner to get clearance to slide under. I only wish I were that thin. Since this video, I invested in a set of Rhino Ramps to make it easier. One of the absolute best purchases ever.
Is the size of the filter wrench 85.5 mm × 16 flutes ?
The one I have is 86mm x 16 flute.
You are a savior!
5W-30 on your jug, is that recommended? getting ready to change my oil on my 2008 same model car.
Yes, for most conditions these 2.5 liter engines use 5W-30. 185,000 miles on this one with that oil and still running strong
@@FloydNashFixItDad WOW very cool. thanks for confirming. Mine has 87k on it, runs great. Amazing cars. Mine is missing the plastic shield underneath, suppose that isn't a big issue.
Grazie, ottimo video, ho notato che non ha nemmeno alzato la macchina per fare il cambio olio. ci proverò anche io a non alzarla.
Thank you. Actually, I did have the passenger side of the car lifted a little, just to give me room to get under the car, but not lift the tire off the ground. The video angles just never showed the jacks.
Fill it to the middle of the dipstick..why ?...fill it right to the top of the line.
на вашем месте я бы помыл корпус фильтра, прежде чем вставлять туда новый. (on your place I would have washed the filter housing before inserting a new one.)
That's actually a really good idea. I cleaned mine out and checked it for residue or metal parts a couple of oil changes ago. It was clean and had no sludge or residue, probably because I change my oil very regularly and use good quality oil. With canister filters, it's always a good idea to check for those things. Thanks for sharing and letting us know about this helpful idea.
Yes, a couple of squirts with brake cleaner and a wipe down of the inside with a rag is a good practice.
why not use good filter and oil?
The Mann filters are some of the best you can get for this vehicle. They are Euro spec filters. I've compared them to the stuff I can get at a local auto parts store and they are a good bit better than any I've tried, and if I buy half a dozen at a time, they are actually a bit cheaper too. The oil is good oil as well. I've used it on vehicles for a long time and always had excellent results. Any good quality oil is going to be fine as long as you change it regularly and at the proper intervals for the driving/weather conditions. In case you didn't actually watch the video, I'm using a Valvoline High Mileage full synthetic which has added conditioners to make sure the seals are all in good shape on the vehicle.
He did. Mann are good filters and that is a turbocharged engine (which runs hotter than a naturally aspirated engine) so you need to use full synthetic oil, which he did. The brand is not as important as long as you change it regularly. Any oil sold in the USA must meet minimum requirements.
I use Mahle filters on my V70 (same engine as the S60) but Mann, Bosch, Wix are all good. The Volvo OEM is good too of course but expensive. I would avoid Fram, Purolator and store brands for this car.
@@stevemccooleq Fram have been shown to be poorly made filters.
@@larrylove9589 Please re-read my post. I advised to avoid Fram filters.
Bad design
What part is bad? I haven't had any troubles with it.
