2010 Volvo V70 Transmission Q&A

  • What happens when you "ride" your Volvo's brakes? Riding the brakes (keeping your foot lightly pressed on the brake pedal for a long time) can lead to transmission issues over time. Remember that when you’re driving down winding roads, and opt for 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 small. 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? Caring for your Volvo V70’s transmission fluid is a great way to help it 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. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
  • Can transmission fluid leak from my Volvo V70? Over time, transmission fluid can leak from your Volvo V70, potentially causing transmission problems. A transmission fluid leak may be caused by a damaged transmission pan, faulty transmission cooler lines, worn-out seals, a cracked transmission housing, or an overfilled transmission.

You might even experience transmission failure.
