I think the garage is sticking to the side of caution. Changing fluid at 230k could cause problems (dislodging old dirt etc). Its also worth noting that if the transmission is whining/grumbling, then a fluid change probably wouldn't make much difference anyway. That sounds more than internal wear, which there's bound to be with that mileage. I highly doubt a fluid change would solve the noises you're hearing. |
Agree. Leave alone. Run 'til dead.

You can download from Volvo site if you don't have one. Yours will most certainly be JWS3309 spec ATF but double check in handbook! 10litres of Mannol around £40-£50 (try Lubriage car parts & accessories on eBay). Guide here on how to: - https://www.matthewsvolvosite.com/tr...0-v50-c30-c70/ Plus plenty of YT vids. |

correction : At no time have volvo ever claimed their transmission is sealed for life ! In fact there is an optional service schedule for it ... Its unfortunate that very few take this up .... |

I guess the 2.0D is the Ford powershift system so understandable its different fluid. Had one once on a C70. Broke it and sold it :rolleyes: Enjoy the ATF change if you choose to do it yourself, its very satisfying but careful when checking the ATF level hot. Dipstick is a sod to reach. :regular_smile: |
