2006 Volvo V70 Transmission Q&A

  • What happens when you "ride" your Volvo's brakes? Riding the brakes or keeping your foot on the brake pedal (even lightly) can lead to transmission issues. 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. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.

Regularly checking and exchanging your 2006 V70’s transmission fluid is one of the best ways to help the transmission system perform. 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. Luckily, leaks and low fluid levels are easy to spot and inexpensive to fix.
  • Can Volvo V70 transmission fluid leak? Yes. Volvo V70 transmission fluid can leak as time passes, which may lead to transmission problems.
