Can Volvos get engine sludge?

Volvo V60 engine sludge happens when motor oil breaks down, thickens and gathers debris. The goop can damage your engine and lead to overheating. Work to prevent engine sludge by investing in routine oil changes, using Volvo-approved oil, and avoiding short trips.

Is Volvo's recommended maintenance really that important?

Yes! Volvo has written a maintenance schedule for your V60. Since they made your vehicle, they know it well! Your manufacturer recommended maintenance schedule gives you solid guidelines for the frequency of specific services, and it can help you know when to replace certain parts before they cause secondary issues in your car.

What should I tell the technician when I bring my Volvo to the shop?

No one likes having to get repair service on their trusty Volvo V60, but you can help minimize the hassle. As soon as you notice something that doesn’t seem right in your vehicle, make a note of the date and what happens (and write it down so you don’t forget!). Are there new noises coming from the engine? Does something smell funny in your A/C vents? The more information you can give to your technician, the better! We’ll be able to find the root of the problem quickly and address it before it gets any worse.

Volvo Brake Repair

Visit Firestone Complete Auto Care for the right brake repair. Our brake repair services for your 2021 Volvo V60 include brake drum and rotor resurfacing, replacement of brake shoes and pads, wheel cylinder and brake caliper installation, and brake fluid exchange. Don't wait if you're experiencing brake squeaks or a loss of braking power. It’s simply not safe to be on the road with poorly functioning brakes. Not to mention, letting brake issues linger could lead to even more wear and tear and rising repair bills later.

Volvo Battery Charging & Starting Services

The middle of nowhere is the wrong place for a dead battery or worn out starter. When you hear the dreaded “click” or just can’t get your engine going, our starting and charging services can diagnose the root of the issue in your Volvo V60. We'll conduct a complete electrical check to determine if your V60 is having electrical problems with the alternator, battery, or starter. If something isn’t working properly, a technician can discuss options for repair services with you, and answer any questions about replacing a bad starter or alternator in your 2021 Volvo V60.

Volvo Engine Repair

"The engine is the lifeblood of America. It’s what moves this country, what built this country.” That’s how one of our lead technicians, Alex, thinks of engines. And frankly, we couldn’t agree more. A car without a functioning engine won’t be much help when you’ve got places to be. Engine repairs are one of the most serious 2021 Volvo V60 repair services we perform. Whether you need new ignition coils or spark plugs, or you’re having issues with your thermostats and mass air flow sensors, we’ve got you covered. Schedule an appointment if you're experiencing problems that could require engine repair.

Volvo V60 Radiator Repair Service

The radiator is an important piece of your vehicle’s cooling system. It ensures that your engine stays within an optimal temperature range while it’s running. If your radiator isn’t functioning like it’s supposed to, your engine can overheat and potentially break down. Radiator repair is essential for long-term engine health, and you should replace the coolant/antifreeze in your 2021 Volvo V60 at the intervals recommended by Volvo. If you have coolant leaks under your car, an illuminated “low coolant” light, or a higher than usual engine temperature on your dashboard thermometer, these signs could indicate that your radiator needs service.
