This is brilliant, a blessing from God! I followed your instructions for my very first time at doing my own oil and filter change, and it was so helpful! So thank you so much.
The internet says this car takes 5.8L of oil. Decades ago I overfilled an engine with oil and it died within weeks so I'm super careful about capacity. My C30 oil changes start with 5.7L, low, 5.8L, low, 5.9L, low... 7 litres!
I strongly encourage everyone to do their own oil changes. My girlfriend is on her third splash shield because the oil change places don't put all the bolts back in and it ends up getting ripped and destroyed while driving. They also over tighten the oil filter, we ruined the cap taking it off last time, it just twisted and fell apart.
Hello 👋🏼 thanks so much for this video. Confirmed what I need to do. Currently learning how to do basic maintenance for my car. The recommended engine oil brand from my car’s manual is castrol. Does it matter?
It litterarly says so on the panel in the trunk, and in the Manual, but thanks. Also you forgot about 5w-30 viscosity, but hey, as long as its Castrol you're good right? Lol
Everytime I buy an oil filter for my c30 the filter comes with two o rings. One really thick one with almost a pull tab on it and one normal size one. I always use just the normal o ring but I have always wondered what the extra thick o ring is for? A different car?
This video is all about how to do it wrong. that car is using the B5254T3 engine and it take 5.8L castrol oil. that dude filled over 6.5 Liters of oil on that car. now in a few days it will probely start to leak from the seals. he starts the car with 6 liters of oil in the engine. and then stop it to teck the oil level. the only thing he does not do is leting the oil drain to the oilpan. and sins its low on the pin he adds 0,5 Liters more. wtf do not listhen to this guy's
@@benjaminbear3800 Qualified you say ? I might not spell good english because this is not my native language. but I am a Volvo Technician. so who is the fool now ? and I may also have a Volvo V50 T5 with same engine. And may have worked on thos for 5 years now. so if you wona do the same as this guy go ahead no one is stoping you.

Very informative and easy to follow the step by step process. Thank you so much!
thanks for the informative video very helpful its nice to be able to do this yourself thumbs up 100%
Please do a video about the anti skid error
We have a blog article about that here: blog.fcpeuro.com/how-to-diagnose-repair-volvo-anti-skid-service-required-message
Great Video. Well done.
Should one lubricate the o ring before putting on the filter cap?
It never hurts to add a little bit of oil to the the o ring to help it seal.
Highly recommend! If the o-ring is dry it binds when you tighten the filter cap. If so the o-ring can be damaged and cause a leak.
Hello 👋🏼 thanks so much for this video. Confirmed what I need to do. Currently learning how to do basic maintenance for my car. The recommended engine oil brand from my car’s manual is castrol. Does it matter?
The procedure with castrol will be the same, each manyfacturer has their preferred oil, we like to use Liqui Moly in all of ours.
@@fcpeuro and you like to over fill the engine with oil 6.5 Liter bro it take 5.8 wtf!
Will this be the same procedure for a 2011 volvo s40 t5
Yes! The only difference will be you won’t remove the shield behind the air intake!
@@Noble.Actual thanks I was wondering same thing
Dont understand why the 6.1 quarts on the manual shows low on dipstick.
5.8 Liters of oil is the recommended. Castrol synthetic high mileage
It litterarly says so on the panel in the trunk, and in the Manual, but thanks. Also you forgot about 5w-30 viscosity, but hey, as long as its Castrol you're good right? Lol
Awesome thanks alot man
How can the home mechanic get this done without a lift?
Isnt this also for a S40 T5 ?
Same exact oil change procedure, other than the removal of the airbox!
Must the oil be synthetic?
Everytime I buy an oil filter for my c30 the filter comes with two o rings. One really thick one with almost a pull tab on it and one normal size one. I always use just the normal o ring but I have always wondered what the extra thick o ring is for? A different car?
Yes! The thick o ring is for Audi/VW cars that use the same type of filter.
Please do a video on the oil pan
❤❤❤❤❤
You guys sent me the wrong o-ring in my oil change kit.
Were you able to get a hold of our Customer service at service@fcpeuro.com ? Sorry that happened but we will be sure to make it right.
Shouldn’t you contact customer service instead of leaving a reply under a UA-cam video?
at last someone who list what tool it need and what is the replacement part number
Having trouble with that mm shit and what not? Too bad there isn't a manual or some shit in the glove compartment
.

Thank you, Francisco.
Is there a torque spec to tighten the drain plug to?
Do not torque the drain plug. *Do* *not* torque it. If it's 'snug' after getting it seated with a wrench or ratchet, it's plenty tight.
Yes.. it's in the Manual . Online or in your glove comp..
Please how many litres of engine oil in total did you pour into the engine?
Hi im thinking of buying like a 2008 volvo c70 is there anything i should know before? I have owned a mercedez if that means anything.
Make sure timing belt has been replaced or be prepared to do this job yourself or pay specialist. Around $1000 job depending where you live
Hi thanks for the video ….. if you can please tel me where the oxygen sensor bank 2 location on 2008 Volvo 2.4i - L5
Is volvo C70 2008 has fuel filter i can’t find it 😢
❤🎉😊

You don't sound qualified to say much about Volvos. You can't even spell correctly. 😮😂

Volvo type of cars are so annoying to change oil in. most cars u just remove the filter and whatever. oh well, spark plugs next
mumble mumble blah blah
