Questions About 2009 Volvo S60’s Transmission

  • Is it bad to ride the brakes in your Volvo? Keeping your foot on the brake pedal or lightly but consistently pushing it down can lead to transmission problems. Pay attention to how often you apply your brake and use engine braking when possible.
  • What can I tow in a Volvo? Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how small. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your S60’s towing capacity. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your S60 is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • When should I have my S60's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Regularly checking and exchanging your 2009 S60’s transmission fluid is one of the best ways to help the transmission system 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 my Volvo S60 leak transmission fluid? Yes, your Volvo S60 can develop a transmission fluid leak. As your S60 ages, parts of the transmission system might wear out or break down, leading to a leak and possible transmission issues. Common causes of transmission fluid leaks include worn seals, a damaged transmission housing, a loose or cracked transmission pan, an overfilled transmission, or faulty transmission lines.
  • Who fixes Volvo S60 transmission leaks? If you have a problem with your transmission system, don’t hesitate to visit your local Firestone Complete Auto Care. Our expert technicians can diagnose and repair S60 transmission leaks and other issues. Schedule an appointment today!
  • Is it okay to drive a S60 with a transmission fluid leak? You should avoid driving with a transmission fluid leak. Your transmission system relies on transmission fluid to operate properly, and a leak may decrease performance, cause your S60 to overheat, or even lead to transmission failure.
