When Does My 2024 Volvo V60 Cross Country Radiator Need Service?

If you’re not sure what the purpose of a radiator is, it’s hard to tell when to have your Volvo V60 Cross Country radiator serviced. Nonetheless, it's still extremely important. The radiator is in the cooling system of your car, and it helps your engine temperature stay within a safe range. If your radiator isn’t functioning like it’s supposed to, the engine can overheat – or worse, break down.

Keeping up with regular radiator maintenance in your 2024 Volvo V60 Cross Country is crucial to keep your engine in the best possible shape for years to come. In fact, Volvo recommends replacing coolant/antifreeze at specific intervals, but it’s also wise to keep an eye out for signs of a failing radiator. You might be driving around (or about to be stranded) with a failing radiator if you see coolant leaks under your car, high engine temperatures, or a dashboard light that indicates low coolant. As soon as you see one of these symptoms, come to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care for a Courtesy Check.

What does radiator repair include? At Firestone Complete Auto Care, we start by performing a thorough inspection of your Volvo V60 Cross Country cooling system.

Issues with your radiator often coincide with a malfunctioning water pump. Some services for your 2024 Volvo V60 Cross Country engine can wait, but the water pump is one part that needs to be addressed ASAP once an issue is identified. This vital part keeps coolant moving through the engine, hoses, and radiator. If it’s not working well (or at all), your engine can easily overheat. Let our technicians examine your radiator pumps and hoses to help make sure everything is in working order. When it comes to radiator service and repair, your 2024 Volvo V60 Cross Country is in good hands at Firestone Complete Auto Care. After all, we know it’s not just a car. It’s your car.

Common Volvo V60 Cross Country Radiator Questions

With regular maintenance and service as needed, you could extend the life of your 2024 Volvo V60 Cross Country radiator. Get answers to common radiator questions, and head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care as soon as you suspect a radiator issue.

  • Why is the coolant light on my Volvo dashboard on? Pay attention to the temperature gauge and lights on your dashboard. If a low coolant warning light comes on or your dashboard temperature gauge keeps rising, it’s likely that your engine is about to overheat (and could leave you stranded on the road). Wait for the engine to cool down, then have your coolant system checked immediately at your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care.
  • Is an antifreeze leak dangerous? Don’t ignore puddles on your driveway or garage floor. If you see a green, bright orange, or pink fluid puddling under your car (it might be sticky, too), it could be antifreeze that’s leaking out of the engine. Antifreeze has a sweet, attractive smell to cats and dogs (and it’s highly toxic to them), so look out for your pets! Repair any leaks as soon as possible, then carefully wash away any remaining fluid that’s left behind on the driveway or garage floor.
  • Can Volvo V60 Cross Country radiators be cleaned? To keep your Volvo V60 Cross Country radiator running well, it’s wise to get it cleaned out a few times a year.
  • Why is my V60 Cross Country overheating? One of the main reasons your Volvo V60 Cross Country engine might overheat is because you don’t have enough coolant. Other causes include a clogged radiator, a damaged cooling fan, a malfunctioning thermostat, or a faulty water pump.
  • My V60 Cross Country radiator sounds like it's rumbling or boiling! What's up? There could be air pockets in your V60 Cross Country’s cooling system. You might also have a clogged radiator or faulty radiator cap (this last one is an easy fix!).
  • There’s rust in my V60 Cross Country radiator. Should I be worried? Yes. Having rust in your Volvo V60 Cross Country radiator can cause leaks, a reduction in cooling efficiency, and even radiator failure. If rust is left untreated, it can corrode the radiator's cooling passages, causing small cracks or holes that can significantly impact the radiator's ability to function. To help prevent rust from becoming a major issue, it's important to properly maintain your radiator system.
