coolant leak
Hi Folks
I have a question, regarding coolant leak. I have v60 T5 2019. I got a low coolant light, and top it off. Then I did an annual oil change and I notice green dry drops on the back side of the engine just above the oil drain. I dig around the web and I find one video about engine tear down. So I suppose this is that hose that is dripping. (marked in picture) and other two pics are taken from my car. So can anyone point me to a direction, how much cost/work would that be to change a gasket. Any input would be appreciated, because when I yesterday call around mechanics, they all said neah it is too much work, I won't take it in. car has 54.000km /33.500mil. so it is "brand new" thanks for your help |

It's not worth risking a major problem so take it to a Volvo dealership asap to get it sorted.

At 5 years old, unfortunately it isn’t brand new. Otherwise it would be under warranty. And Volvo dealers aren’t known for being bargain spots. If it is a hose or gasket, or the thermostat housing, any decent garage should be able to fix it .
If I were you, I’d try and find someone who specialises in Volvos , as an alternative to the main dealer |

I suggest you call Tomaž Zupan from Blagovica. About half an hour drive for you. All my volvos were / are serviced there.

In the old days we would crack an egg in the radiator or pour in some radweld or sachet of C-lit.
