The typical 12-volt car battery may last three to five years, depending on the type of battery, the driving conditions, and how well the battery is maintained.

Why is there white, crusty buildup on my S80’s battery post?

If you notice white, crusty stuff around the battery terminals of your S80, it's likely corrosion. A chemical reaction between battery acid and the air can create a white, powdery substance that builds up over time on the terminals. This buildup can interfere with the electrical connection between the battery and your S80’s electrical system, potentially leading to poor performance, difficulty starting, and other issues.

How do I remove corrosion from my S80 car battery?

Regularly inspecting and cleaning your battery terminals will help keep your S80’s electrical system running smoothly. Before cleaning, reference your owner’s manual for instructions on how to disconnect the battery cables. Once the cables have been disconnected, gently clean the terminals with a mixture of water and baking soda, a wire brush, and a rag.

Buy the Right Battery for Your Volvo S80

Your S80 doesn't have an expiration date, but its battery does. The average car battery lasts three to five years. Check your battery regularly and replace it as needed so it doesn’t leave you and your Volvo S80 stranded. Watch for signs that your current battery is getting too old or too weak. A lagging starter, a blinking battery or check engine light, bloated battery case, corroded battery posts, and subpar electrical performance can all signal that your battery is on its last leg.
