    Great job by a young man. In the 1970s I could fix my own car. Replacing my alternator in 20 minutes when it was 2 bolts. Now it is like a medical operation.

    I wish people would put the year/year range in the title, it kinda matters for this kind of video 😂

    Great work producing this video … soooo informative !
    I would respectfully suggest you wear a head mounted camera (for some shots) so that you can show both hands and the removal of the alternator itself 😎😎😎

    I have seen a lot of Volvo S60 repairs in the last four years of owning one you are by far the best. Own a 2006 2.5T I am going to subscribe and hit the bell. I like to see a video on a tune up

    I agree - great tutorial! I’ve watched others but you made the whole process look more achievable for my 2006 S80..will do that job soon, as the message I receive with the battery warning light is “Power System Service Urgent “..thanks again!

    I love the video
    Can you do a video on replacing the Catalytic converter on the xc90 model 2004 please
    BTW
    investing in a laser pointer would help with identifying those bolts and connectors in those hard to reach places from a viewer standpoint
    Nice job and thanks😂🎉😂😂

    I'm ramping up to do this as the shop quoted me $800-$900 to replace mine. I saw another video where they just removed the passenger headlight, turbo hoses and unbolted the power steering motor to access the alternator. They didn't have to drain anything.

    i'm having no luck with the lower alt bolts, the top bolt was already broken off before i bought the car.
    i've been trying for a couple of yrs now, i wanted to install a new regulater.
    the alternater still works but at 230K miles it will not last forever.
    exactly which tool did you use for the alt bolts.

    You omitted the toughest part of the job. Getting the alternator out is far and away the trickiest part, yet somehow youve not included the video for it and just say "be creative". What a load of bollocks lol. Youre average dad is gonna curse you sideways when they get to that part haha.
    The video fails for that reason alone, massive thumbs down.
