We were just finishing up all the engine work on our 2004 S60 2.5T content car when we decided to go ahead and jump into working on the drivetrain. With 151,000 miles on the car, we agreed it was a good idea to change the transmission fluid first!

Clean transmission fluid is essential to the operation of your Volvo S60 transmission. The fluid over time can break down and become contaminated with clutch material and damage other parts on your Volvo. Also, the detergent can lose its cleaning properties which can cause shift solenoids to malfunction due to carbon buildup. The transmission fluid in your P2 Chassis Volvo should be changed every 52,500k miles and is fairly simple process taking no longer than a half hour to complete the drain and fill service. While a complete flush is possible, Volvo doesn't recommend to flush out all of the fluid

Jack the car up so you can access the transmission drain plug. Be sure to use jack stands to properly support the car for your safety.
Remove the 12mm bolts securing the splash pan if equipped
Remove the 24mm bolt located on the bottom of the transmission to remove the fluid.
Once the fluid has been drained, replace the 24mm bolt with a new drain plug washer and tighten.
Reinstall your splash pan
Remove the plastic fresh air pipe from the bottom of the air box
Remove the transmission dipstick
Insert the funnel into the dipstick tube
Install your new fluid.
Reinstall your dipstick and the fresh air hose
Lower the car and drive around the block.
Check the fluid level and adjust.

NOTE: A drain & fill will use just under 4 liters of fluid. Be sure to check the fluid level continuously when refilling to avoid over filling the transmission.
