Can Volvo service save me money?

Yes. Servicing the drivetrain system can help you avoid more significant repairs. A bad drivetrain can put more stress on other vehicle components.

What are signs my Volvo drivetrain is damaged?

Your Volvo S60 drivetrain might be damaged if you notice strange noises from the rear of your vehicle, see fluid leaking, or have issues turning.

How often should I come in for Volvo S60 differential service?

Double check your owner’s manual and talk with a technician. Differential service frequency varies from car to car. At a minimum, we recommend getting your differential inspected and the differential fluid changed as a part of your regular vehicle maintenance routine since your vehicle cannot function without a differential.

What triggers the malfunction indicator light (MIL) in a S60?

The malfunction indicator light — also known as the check engine light — on your S60 can illuminate for a variety of reasons, including engine issues, electrical problems, damaged sensors, transmission problems, misfires, and faulty connections.

Is it possible to reset the S60 malfunction warning light on my own?

While resetting a malfunction warning light at home is technically possible, doing so is not advisable. The check engine light is typically a sign of a problem in one of your S60's systems, and simply resetting the light will not address the underlying issue. Instead, you should bring your vehicle to a reliable auto shop to have the underlying problem identified and fixed to help ensure the safety and reliability of your S60.

Is a drivetrain malfunction in my S60 serious?

If you experience a drivetrain malfunction in your S60, it is important to have it inspected by a professional mechanic as soon as possible to identify the underlying cause and perform the necessary repairs. Driving with a malfunctioning drivetrain can be dangerous and cause further damage to your car.

Is my S60’s transmission part of the drivetrain?

Yes, the transmission is an essential part of your S60’s drivetrain. The drivetrain consists of components — like the transmission — that transfer power from the engine to the wheels to move your S60 forward. Other components in the driver train include the axles, differential, and driveshaft.

All About 2024 Volvo S60 Drivetrain Service

Your S60’s drivetrain has a very important job. It transmits power from the engine to the wheels. It runs the full length of your Volvo, from the axles to the transmission. It’s a very intricate system of moving parts and is comprised of everything after the engine transmission: driveshafts, axles, joints, differentials, and wheels. When you maintain the drivetrain in your 2024 Volvo S60, you help maintain your vehicle's power. Follow Volvo's recommendations for lubricating bearings/gears and checking/changing differential fluids to minimize repairs over time.

When to Get Volvo S60 Drivetrain Repairs

Drivetrains for front, rear, and all-wheel-drive and 4WD vehicles are quite different, so you don't want to go to just anyone for drivetrain repair. You want to come see the technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care. We can help repair all of your 2024 Volvo S60 drivetrain components including the CV joints, CV axles, and driveshaft. Your Volvo could be crying out for driveshaft repair if you notice heavy vibrations in your floorboards, clunks when shifting, resistance when turning, or vibration as your vehicle accelerates. It’s difficult to nail down a timeline for drivetrain repair. The system's pieces and parts don't necessarily have a "shelf life." A lot depends on your driving style and climate. One of your best courses of action is to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care when you first notice that something feels "off" with your Volvo S60.

You might be wondering: how much will it cost to fix the drivetrain in your 2024 Volvo S60? Again, it depends!

Big repairs, like gear or bearing replacement, can be a little more expensive since the labor is much more intensive.
