How often will I need Volvo V60 differential service?

What triggers the malfunction indicator light (MIL) in a V60?

Can you clear the V60 check engine light on your own?

It may be tempting to reset the malfunction warning light on your V60, but it's important to resist the urge.

Does my V60 transmission belong to the drivetrain system?

Yes, the drivetrain system in your V60 includes the transmission. Other components in the drivetrain are the driveshaft, axles, and differential. Together, these components deliver power from the engine to the wheels to push your V60 forward.

When you maintain the drivetrain in your 2018 Volvo V60, 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.
