1) Replace at 105,000 miles (168,000 km)
2) Brake fluid should be changed at owner request every second year or 30,000 miles (48,000 km). The fluid
should be replaced once a year or every 15,000 miles (24,000 km) when driving under extremely hard
conditions (mountain driving, etc.).
3) Rotate tires at owner request.
The following items should be checked weekly by the driver (it takes only a few minutes):
Engine oil level, brake fluid level, radiator coolant level, operation of all lights, horns, windshield wipers, tire
pressure (all five tires), windshield washer fluid level
The following should also be carried out at regular intervals:
Washing (check all drain holes), polishing, cleaning
pg. 110 Servicing
Engine air filter
Replace the engine air filter cartridge with a new one every 30,000 miles (48,000 km). The cartridge should be
replaced more often when driving under dirty and dusty conditions. The filter cannot be cleaned and therefore should
always be replaced with a new one.
Timing belt
For proper functioning of the vehicle and its emission control systems, the timing belt and tensioner must be replaced
every 105,000 miles (168,000 km). Engine damage will occur if the belt fails.
Fuel system cap, tank and lines and connections
The effectiveness of the fuel system to contain hydrocarbons is dependent largely on a leakfree system. Check for
proper sealing of the fuel filler cap which contains "O" ring type seals.
NOTE: If the fuel filler cap is not closed tightly or if the engine is running when the car is refueled, the Check Engine
light ("Check Engine") may indicate a fault. However, your vehicle's performance will not be affected. Use only Volvo
original or approved fuel filler caps.
Fuel (line) filter
For proper functioning of the vehicle and its emission control systems, the fuel line filter should be replaced at 105,000
miles (168,000 km). The filter is replaced as one complete unit. Replace more frequently if contaminated fuel is
introduced into the tank (or if there is reason to suspect that this has occurred).
