2009 Volvo S60 Maintenance Schedule

When it comes to your Volvo S60, how you treat your car makes all the difference in its performance. With the right maintenance at the right time, your S60 has a good chance of hitting 200,000 miles or more. Not an expert in what services your car needs and when? No problem. It can be overwhelming, but fortunately, there’s a resource that takes the guesswork out of routine S60 maintenance. Just follow your 2009 Volvo S60 maintenance schedule!

The recommended maintenance schedule is put together by Volvo, your vehicle manufacturer. Driving conditions, climate variations, and other variables can affect which scheduled maintenance services you’ll need; in most cases, though, recommended maintenance will consist of services like fluid exchanges, filter changes, new brake pads, oil changes, and tire rotations. Scheduling routine service appointments is one of the best ways to help extend your S60's life, decrease your risk of dangerous malfunctions on the road, and help you avoid expensive repairs caused by 2009 Volvo S60 problems later.

Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 2009 Volvo S60 for factory-recommended routine maintenance and a skilled technician will start the appointment with a Courtesy Check. The Courtesy Check helps us see what we’re working with under the hood, and allows us to alert you to any potential problems before they worsen. Every Courtesy Check will include a visual inspection of your S60. We’ll check your head and tail lights, fluid levels, filters, tires (and their alignment!), and windshield wiper blades. We’ll also perform a free battery check to determine your battery’s charge level.

Could your 2009 Volvo S60 be ready for a new battery? If your current battery is more than three years old, it may be time for a replacement (batteries typically last somewhere between three and five years). Depending on the climate where you live and your habits while driving, your S60 may need a replacement battery sooner. Extremely hot or cold temperatures can take a toll on your Volvo S60 battery, and so can frequent short drives. It can be tempting to try and get as much life out of your battery as possible, but it’s smart to check it regularly and replace it before it gets too weak. Otherwise, you may find yourself (and your trusty S60) stuck in the middle of nowhere. Your Volvo S60 won't be going anywhere without a strong battery.

Staying on schedule for battery replacements and motor oil changes can help your 2009 Volvo S60's engine run smoother. Reference the chart toward the top of the page if you're not sure about the optimal oil change intervals for your 2009 S60. Keep in mind that your oil change interval could be different given your driving style and climate. Come in and speak with a Firestone Complete Auto Care technician to find out how often to change your oil. We can also answer any questions you have about what type of oil to use for your 2009 Volvo S60.

Bring your car to Firestone Complete Auto Care, where our technicians can check your car’s steering components and, if necessary, provide the appropriate Volvo S60 steering and suspension services. This can include things like power steering fluid replacement, wheel alignment adjustments, replacement of struts and wheel bearings, and ball joint lubrication.
