    I learned the hard way once....ONCE about the drip pans. I have a 13 Quart model from AutoZone....that has lasted me for almost 20 years and works great. I can actually do two vehicles worth of oil changes. I try to coordinate them around the same time and make one trip back to A/Z for used oil disposal. Another cheap piece of insurance is in addition to the drain pan I also purchased a drip pan, this is different than drain pan but covers much more area around the drain pan and recovers most of what may spill over the drain pan. drip trays are easy to store since they are flat and are easy to clean. You might still spill but the drip tray should greatly reduce over spill from the drain pan. Another helpful tip is to vent the drain pan this will greatly enhance the flow rate into the drain pan and make it easier and cleaner do empty the pan at the used oil disposal site. Great video thinking of getting back into the Volvo Market...Came from a 2008 XC90 but looking at 2015 ish S60

  • @stephencannon3140
    @stephencannon3140 4 роки тому +4

    Another quick tip is when draining oil I recommend draining as much as possible.... The old oil should come out as a trickle, About five minutes should do it. Also drain oil, filter wait a few minutes then replace drain plug. If you have a high mileage vehicle then changing the drain plug could be in order. I have seen different videos for the oil filter, some have you remove from the bottom and some from the top. The Cartridge filters take a bit of getting used to but seem to work and are becoming more common. I have had Audi, BMC, Mercedes and Volvo and all four had the cartridge type filters and at least since about 2008 model year. Good call on the Mobil 1, Volvo recommends Castrol but I have had good luck with Mobil 1 and you can usually get the same $ 26 ish price at Costco when the oil sales rotate through to Mobil 1. For the fill part, fill top off but don't be surprised is the level drops a bit after start. That is some cycling through the filter and don't be alarmed. Those ramps that you used are the ones I have and work great. They are easy to store and also provide a very good angle for allowing maximum drain back of the old oil. Also remember when checking for leaks allow engine to idle about five minutes minimum. Keep the splash shield removed until after the leak check is complete. Easier to detect leaks immediately at the source.
    If for some reason you think you over serviced GENTLY crack the drain plug. The difference between a trickle and a geyser of the oil can literally be a matter of 1/4 turn. I recommend a box end wrench for the drain plug, ratchet works but I think you can control the torque better with a wrench, You could also split the middle and get a ratchet wrench. After cracking the drain plug gently twist by hand. Remember again drip and geyser can be a matter of a 1/4 turn or even less.

    Hello,
    Just wondering, if you or anyone else seeing this can say whether you can swap oil filter/O-ring without a drained system? (2012 Volvo S60 T5 2.5L) Looking to put in a "better" oil filter but don't the oil changed yet at least.

    • @aaronstestlab
      @aaronstestlab  5 років тому

      Considering the filter and housing sit above the oil pan I would think it's ok. I honestly wouldn't do it though. Just wait until your next oil change. My non-mechanic inclination is that one oil filter can't be that much better than another to justify the hassle.

    • @Vinsteez
      @Vinsteez 5 років тому

      I was thinking the same thing...Literally had my oil changed yesterday and just had the idea come across my head just for that potential "performance increase" by using a "better" filter such as K&N...Unnecessary? Definitely, it's just that little satisfaction factor that's poking me, even if there isn't a difference. Thank you though!

    6:46 Gosh, I hate this part. Volvo makes it hard to do this step because I assume they want the dealerships to be the ones to change the oil. This step isn't mentioned in the owner's manual, so you have to look online...and it took me longer than you would think to find the correct way to do this. Very frustrating.

    Quick question: I didn't have the proper wrench with me, so I went ahead and changed the oil without changing the filter. I will come back and do the filter in a few days. When I do, will oil come gushing out of it, or will it be like this one? Keep in mind the engine will have oil in it. Thanks.

It was super easy to deal with just have universal joint, a small wobble joint, a 36 mm socket, and a ratchet. Which I know you mentioned that in your video. I tried a 36 mm service wrench but couldn't get enough torque to loosen it. But the service wrench was nice for tightening.

It is due to defective piston rings clogging and resulting in blow-by. That oil is WAY too dark and thick and will inevitably result in large oil consumption. These models should have their synthetic changed no more than 3000 miles to delay onset of this problem. Not sure of your milage, but if you’ve been doing them at Volvo recommended intervals (and judging from its color), it may be too late for this engine.
