The corect priming procedure is done by pressing the start button in position 2 without holding the brake and just leave it like that fir 1-2 minutes. The car primes itself. Than start the engine and leave it running for 3-5 minutes. It works better than pressing the start button thre times in a row. It’s the volvo procedure that was being shared by a volvo dealer mechanic. Same procedure is used after fuel injectors disasamble. Another way is filling the bottom cup with clean diesel before screwing it back. Thow it can be a little bit hard without spilling it off. In other volvo models,it works well cause you have more acces to the fuel filter. Eg xc90
Now that’s real world how to change your diesel filter any of us can do, once you have seen it done outside your house with no fancy car lifts,changed my pollen filter and air filter yesterday thanks to you,looking forward to you changing the engine oil.Thanks again🏴👍🏻
I use a 32 mm ring spanner and an 18 mm ring spanner for the drain plug, As you have shown the socket can be a bit tight, then don't try to start it straight away, just press the start button with out your foot on the brake so that the pump can fill the filter, do it three times, then start the car, that way it is better for the main diesel pump. :-)
forgot to prime the new filter with fuel :) That is done by putting the car into ignition poisition without starting 3 times and only start it then. It hurts the pump to run without fuel ;/
Hey, good channel, but i was at a mekanic today, and he said that he had to hook the car to a computer to not burn the pump. They also said go to volvo,we cant do it here. Im confifent in you but em confused about them.
People talk about changing the "fuel filter" but it seems like V60's have changed the location of the fuel filter, so some have it at the rear like your and some have it under the bonnet, nobody seems to mention this? I've just looked and I don't have a rear one and the service records only mention the replacing of a cannister version that goes at the front. Amazon brings up both versions and tells me they are both for my specific car, so it looks like they don't know either
Oh,and another thing to take into consideration at any D5 engine after 2006. Make sure that your swirl rod on the swirl flaps actuator is still in its place and has not detached at one of the ends. It does not trigger any check engine light.
Cheers, I noticed by chance changing the steering fluid. Rod has disconnected from the engine side, filthy with thick oil, a leak in there somewhere to, leaking onto the disconnected balljoint
@@toneranger You have to put the rod back in its place and the oil leak is caused by swirl flaps rubber part that has gone bad.the only way to fix it is to change the entire part.that requires takeing down the plastic admission cover and replacing the the seal as well.
@@endurocrosser8834 thank you, do you know if the injectors need to come out to be able to reach and replace the seal that's spurting the oil over the actuator rod ?
Short extension bar clears the anti roll bar, gloves every time with oil,petrol and diesel, dermatitis is a nasty disease and itchy flaking skin is horrible 😢
Next time when you loose your 18mm plug a little bit loose 32mm 1/4 turn. That will give you some air in the filter and everything will drain the proper way, not all over your face
It is worth to notice that a filter change procedure should be done when the tank level is below 75% otherwise Diesel will leak continuously out of the filter housing. Priming is done with ignition on for 1 to 2 minutes.
Hi, my Volvo XC 70 D5 after driving to the destination and switch off, it doesn't start again it just crank. Could it be the fuel filter or the pump? Thanks in advance...
I agree. Stay away from the main stealer. Learn to do it yourself. The volvo snobs on the volvo forum believe even an independent mechanic isn't fit to look after a volvo. What a bunch of twats

That's what I'm trying demonstrate on this channel! All you need is a few hand tools and parts and you can maintain almost any car! 😁
Many thanks, I was having trouble locating the fuel filter, since the position seems to vary for different Volvo models.

Thanks for this video, now i can do myself 😁🫡
Doing mine on my S80 tomorrow so this video was good timing!
Did the car perform any better with a new filter ??
Thanks. My job tomorrow on my D5 at 120k miles.
You should prime the fuel system after filter change by holding the start key without the brake. 2-3 Times much better for the high pressure pump
forgot to prime the new filter with fuel :) That is done by putting the car into ignition poisition without starting 3 times and only start it then. It hurts the pump to run without fuel ;/
I bought a 32mm shallow socket which worked. Be very careful tightening the drain plug, it only has a plastic thread and is easy to strip.
Got myself a bosch one. just need the ramps now and a 32mm socket aswell and i'll be doing it.
Great video. Do you have a link to the ramps you used?
Love all your vids fella!! Buying an xc60 2010 so I'm sure your video will be handy. Any thoughts on the xc60?
Thanks mate! yes love the xc60! brilliant cars! D5 is an especially good engine!

very useful as normal
You could of cleaned the housing out with a bit of deisel and a clean rag needs to be spotless for a proper job

@@toneranger
Yes,the need to come out.
And also change the injector’s copper rings.
@@endurocrosser8834 that's not a cheap fix I imagine 💰😁

🛏But now he can afford a doctor visit since he saved all that money doing his own maintenance. 🛌
So is it loosen 32mm first then 19mm plug second? tia
Next time when you loose your 18mm plug a little bit loose 32mm 1/4 turn. That will give you some air in the filter and everything will drain the proper way, not all over your face
do you know what size fuel filter 136kw d5 needs? ive found theres a 71mm and an 81mm diameter from Meyle.
such an easy job
Which extension did you use? I cannot for the life of me get this thing off and it's driving me insane
I have a 2010 d5. 7k annual mileage is it ok to change these every 3 years?
I think Volvo recommends every 30,000 miles, so yes 👍
It is worth to notice that a filter change procedure should be done when the tank level is below 75% otherwise Diesel will leak continuously out of the filter housing.
Priming is done with ignition on for 1 to 2 minutes.
Is it tge same with a v60 d3 ?
nice job cheers

yes possibly or even glowplugs :)
@@drivelife.channel Thank you Sir, I'll look into that as well
Changin diesel filter imporove mpg ?
Yep 😁
I have seen in a Volvo service they use Mann filter they say is also the manufacture of the OEM Volvo,
Perhaps better to just put an oil pan underneath the car. Might be easier than the cut open plastic bottle many RUclipsr seem to prefer.
I agree. Stay away from the main stealer. Learn to do it yourself. The volvo snobs on the volvo forum believe even an independent mechanic isn't fit to look after a volvo. What a bunch of twats
Do 2012s still have fuel filters?
Or just a strainer before the fuel pump? Please reply asap
Yes :)
Can I do that with an adjustable spanner
🔧As long as it's a metric spanner. Imperial spanners do not work on European cars. 🔧
For god sake put some gloves on man! You properly still stink of diesel 🤣
🤣🤣🤣 yep 🤣🤣
Tightening not using much effort at all, my garage=let's use the biggest battery impact we can find 👍🤣
