Engine Q&A 1998 Volvo S70

  • Why does my S70’s check engine light come on when I start it? Generally, your check engine light turning on upon ignition is not a bad thing. It’s just your S70 firing up its circuits. The light should turn off in a bit, but come see us if it doesn't.
  • Why is my Volvo S70 making engine noise? Strange under-the-hood noises can point to problems within your Volvo S70 engine. Tapping or knocking could mean you need an oil change. Whistling sounds could mean you have an intake leak or misaligned belt. Squealing may be caused by a loose fan belt, and grinding might be coming from the brakes, not the engine.
  • What could damage my Volvo S70 engine? Certain driving habits can damage your engine and should be avoided. These habits include 'running on fumes,' revving the engine while still in Park, or slamming the gas pedal while the engine is still cold. Help sustain your engine’s performance and efficiency by staying miles away from these bad driving practices.
  • Can I put water in my Volvo S70 radiator? An emergency is the only time you should consider putting water in your radiator. Outside of that, it’s recommended you use a pre-mixed coolant or a 50/50 blend of water and coolant. However, if you need to continue driving your S70 when you’re out of coolant, having water in the coolant reservoir is better than nothing.
  • What can cause the engine in my S70 to suddenly stop? If your S70 car engine suddenly stops, it could be due to overheating, low fuel, a faulty ignition system, sensor problems, electrical system trouble, or mechanical issues.
