2013 Volvo C30 Questions & Answers

  • What happens when you "ride" your Volvo's brakes? Riding the brakes or keeping your foot on the brake pedal (even lightly) can lead to transmission issues. Pay attention to how often you apply your brake and use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can I tow in a Volvo C30? Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how small. The added weight can cause issues with your transmission if your vehicle isn't equipped to handle the load. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your C30 is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • When should I have my C30's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Caring for your Volvo C30’s transmission fluid is a great way to help it perform. A general rule of thumb is to have your transmission fluid checked and changed about every 30,000 to 60,000 miles, but that timeline can change if you're hard on your Volvo. The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
  • Can Volvo C30 transmission fluid leak? Over time, transmission fluid can leak from your Volvo C30, potentially causing transmission problems.
