2010 Volvo XC70 Oil Change Questions

  • What can low oil do to my Volvo XC70 engine? Engine oil lubricates moving parts in your engine. If your oil runs low, these components can grind against each other, generate too much heat, and cause your Volvo XC70 engine to fail. That’s why you should check your oil and get it changed regularly.
  • Can I change my Volvo oil on my own? Changing your own oil isn't as convenient as you might think. It requires special tools and old oil must be disposed of properly. Getting a professional oil change reduces the risk of something going wrong during the service, but also help your car perform down the road.
  • Why is my Volvo XC70 spewing blue or gray exhaust smoke? Your engine could be burning oil due to a leak. It may be time for a pro to take a look. The leak could be the result of worn valve seals, damaged piston rings, or worn cylinder walls.
  • Who can change the oil on my Volvo XC70? You can count on Firestone Complete Auto Care for your Volvo XC70 oil change, oil filter replacement, oil leak diagnostics, and more! Our expert technicians will even advise the right oil for your vehicle.
  • Why is the oil light on in my Volvo XC70? If you’re overdue for an oil change, it might trigger your Volvo XC70 oil change reminder light. If the oil pressure light is illuminated, it could be due to low engine oil, a failing oil pump, a malfunctioning oil pressure sensor, or a clogged oil filter.
  • Do I need to change my XC70's oil filter when I get an oil change? It's recommended that you replace your Volvo XC70 oil filter with every oil change. Otherwise, you send fresh, clean motor oil through a dirty filter. That's like putting on muddy socks after a shower.
