Your Guide to 2006 Volvo S80 Scheduled Maintenance

When it comes to your Volvo S80, how you treat your car makes all the difference in its performance. With proactive maintenance, your S80 has a good chance of hitting 200,000 miles or more. But how do you know what service to get and when? There's no need to guess when it's time to get S80 maintenance, and no need to wait until something goes wrong. Just follow your 2006 Volvo S80 maintenance schedule!

The recommended maintenance schedule is put together by Volvo, your vehicle manufacturer. Depending on driving conditions and climate in your area (as well as other contributing factors, like your personal travel habits), your car’s scheduled maintenance needs may vary; however, there’s a good chance that your vehicle’s recommended maintenance services will include fluid exchanges, filter changes, new brake pads, oil changes, and tire rotations. Staying on track with routine service appointments can help your S80 perform better, decrease your risk of dangerous malfunctions on the road, and help you avoid expensive repairs caused by 2006 Volvo S80 problems later.

Essential Maintenance to Keep Your Volvo S80 Running Newer, Longer

Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for manufacturer-recommended routine maintenance on your 2006 Volvo S80 and a skilled technician will start the appointment with a Courtesy Check. A Courtesy Check helps "set the stage" for your service and catch any small problems before they turn into big repairs. During a Courtesy Check, we’ll always check your battery, then we’ll move on to inspect your S80’s head and tail lights, tires, fluid levels, alignment, and windshield wipers.

Could your 2006 Volvo S80 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 S80 may need a replacement battery sooner. Short trips and extreme temperatures can shorten the overall life expectancy of your Volvo S80 battery. 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, your battery could die unexpectedly, leaving you and your S80 stranded. Your Volvo S80 won’t even be able to start with a weak battery, much less get you where you need to go.

Staying on schedule for battery replacements and motor oil changes can help your 2006 Volvo S80'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 2006 S80. 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 2006 Volvo S80.
