Questions About 2005 Volvo V70’s Transmission

  • What happens when you "ride" your Volvo's brakes? Keeping your foot on the brake pedal or lightly but consistently pushing it down can lead to transmission problems. Keep that in mind when driving in hilly terrain and remember to use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can I tow in a Volvo V70? Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how light the load might seem. Defying your V70 towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your V70 is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • When should I have my V70's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Maintaining your Volvo V70 transmission fluid is one of the best ways to maintain your transmission's health. Some technicians would say that between 30,000 and 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your Volvo's transmission fluid checked and replaced, but that timeline can vary depending on how your vehicle is used and your manufacturer’s recommendations. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
  • Can my Volvo V70 leak transmission fluid? Yes, your Volvo V70 can develop a transmission fluid leak. As your V70 ages, parts of the transmission system might wear out or break down, leading to a leak and possible transmission issues. Common causes of transmission fluid leaks include worn seals, a damaged transmission housing, a loose or cracked transmission pan, an overfilled transmission, or faulty transmission lines.
