Consumer Review Video - 2008 Volvo S60 2.5T 2.5L 5 Cyl. Turbo

Common problems and easy repairs on a 2008 S60

The 2008 Volvo S60 2.5T is a moderately difficult car to maintain on account of some problematic procedures. To access the headlights on the driver side you must first remove the entire air filter housing, which is held on with many unusual fasteners. The cabin air filter is located behind multiple panels beneath the glove box, which will be time-consuming to access. The lower radiator hose must be accessed in order to drain the radiator coolant, which is located underneath the vehicle behind a cumbersome panel.

However, the 2008 Volvo S60 2.5T has its upsides. All of its tail lights are quickly located behind a single panel in the trunk and can be removed without the use of any tools. The battery is also located in the trunk and has very reliable access to its bracket. The fog lights can be easily removed by simply reaching behind the front bumper.
