I bought my elderly neighbor’s 2001 S60 for $1200 to use as my commuter. The thing has 220k miles on it and is flawless. I love it to be honest.
2002 S80 I feel the same at 205k
Don’t be discouraged by the potential problems. It really isn’t that bad. I have seen several V70 with inter galactic mileages like 700,000 to 800,000km without major issues other than oil change, tyres, brakes etc.
Volvo fan here. I doubt in your comment.
Forchan Chan Well, so am I. Seeing is believing my friend. You heard of Brunei Shell Petroleum? It used to operate a fleet of V70s and now the newer V60, V40 and a smaller fleet of S60. Before you cast your doubt you should come here and see for yourself. :)
@@Arden688 only tires, brakes and oil in 700-800k is just not possible with any car. Something must failed.
Forchan Chan Look man, if you read carefully I used the word “etc”. Regardless, you got to give credit for a car that can travel that sort of distance.
@@Arden688 Well but every car can reach 700k. I've seen Skoda Fabia 1.2 HTP with 700k and no major issues (the engine is known for breaking down in 150k), and I've seen a V70 with 2.4 103kW engine with oil leakage, transmission problem in 300k. You can never know if you buy a good one or not ;)
This has to be the most accurate video ever
Good advice.
These cars can last a very very long time with proper maintenance. I have an '07 V70R that was owned by a pilot (RIP A.T.) friend of mine and he maintained it meticulously. Even so, I went through it and replaced all the fluids, including the Haldex and angle gear. Next project is brake fluid flush.
It has 121K miles, and isn't perfect cosmetically, but runs strong and trouble free. If you own a P2, invest $300 for a laptop with VIDA/DICE. A must to troubleshoot these cars correctly.
I bought a 2001 V70 T5 8 years ago, it now has 200k miles. I swear this guy has been watching all my Amazon, eBay, PelicanParts and local pick-and-pull purchase history. Nearly everything he described has happened. He forgot to mention the ETM issue.
I have a '02 S60 2.4i and i have unstable idle, no vacumm leaks, could an ETM change fix that?
Could be, I think the 2002 is a bad year for the TCM. I know on my 01 the 1st one went out at 80k, the Volvo replaced one went 100k. I found a XeModeX TCM from a wrecked S80. It was plug and play and had been working great. Do you know if it’s ever been replaced? If you have access to local pick and pull, you could try to find one out of a wrecked Volvo. I’ve been told, but not 100% sure, is that if your Volvo has had a replacement done in the past, you may be able to plug and play one from a pick and pull yard.
How much mpg do y’all get. I have 04 s60 2.5t and I get like 15 mpg combined
@@oluwanifemiogundeko7132 I get 17mpg with a mix of highway, city, and up and down a mountain (on regular gas though).
I have been driving my '05 S60 since '07 and I never heard of any of those problems with mine. I have had to do the brakes and rotors and a few front end parts like tie end rods and the like but nothing other than routine wear. I have 90k miles on my Platinum Green "Olive" and like her more each day. Though not turbo charged it still takes off and is a dream on a windy road. A real sports car ride and boy does it chew up the curves. Amazing.
Bought S60 2.0t from 2008 from the first owner from Germany with prince lpg installed and max equipment including webasto. Far the best car I've ever owned. A class ahead from bmw3, Mercedes c and A4 which I had. The most comfortable seats ever, supreme stereo, and built quality.
Same voice as the "welcome to hydraulic press channel...".😂😂😂😂😂
To me he sounds liek Kimi Raikkonen
@@djvasforever Well you are both correct because he sounds Finnish and both of those people are from Finland
@@kaspar1909 thank you for making my comment 8 months ahead of me.
@@jamspre No problem mate
I own for about 3 years now an 2003 S60 P2 2.4 non turbo petrol with 261 000km. It had 190 000ish when i purcased it. So far I only got driver seat ripped that i sew back, had to change 1 wheel bearing, handbrake 2 times and faulthy seat connector that triggered SRS Airbag lamp and that is about it. Car has low power because it is nonturbo but it is a great cruser on long and short rides and never let me down as my previous new Volvo did, nothing but nightmares. So i think ill keep rolling with this one for many more years to come.
I've had my 2007 s60 with 270 000 kilometers for 2 years now and i've not had any problems what so ever, i have only done the standard services
I have an 04 V70 with 259,915 miles. Absolutely love this car.
I recently read an article about a volvo 740 with 1 700 000 km.
Yes. One. Million. Seven. Hundred. Thousand. Kilometers. It's very common that an older volvo live much longer than 500 000 km. Do the maintanence and you have a friendship that last forever
The best video about used Volvos by far, and I watched many in the past weeks.
I have a 2002 V70 with 210,000 miles. Owned it 13 years. Love it. Never needed anything other than regular servicing. I've even had 72 mpg on long runs. Still on the original clutch, exhaust and springs.
Anti-Skid Service Required is another issue on these Volvo models. Steering wheel angle sensor can go bad and trigger Anti-Skid Service Required message. Cost $300 ~ $400. There are rubber in the lower suspension that keeps steering to 2.5 turns. The rubber can be worn out and cause the steering to move beyond 2.5 turns and damage steering angle sensor (SAS). The set of rubbers are about $50.
I have a 2006 Volvo S60 2.5T and it has to be one of the smoothest driving cars I’ve been in. Pretty quick car as well, but I’ve been having a lot of issues with the ignition coils and braking. But I guess at 132k miles that’s to be expected. Honestly I’m shocked they didn’t go bad sooner
That was the best review of a vehicles repair history I've ever seen. I've been driving an 04 V70 T5 for 14 years and have done all my own repairs. The way DCR put all the information and explanations together are excellent! Thanks for all the talent and hard work for putting the summery together.
Did you find the timing belt replacement easy enough? I've never tackled timing and am nervous to buy an old used V70 for that reason.
@@AB-rb5dk I was able to do the timing belt. I can relate to your fear of just having the cam off one gear could be a mess. If you tackle it, watch available videos. Get a good marker and take your time marking all positions.
I have an 07 that we love, we're at 150K and it's needing new CV joints. The fuel issues I had were a Swedish nightmare but over.
Absolutely the best and most comfortable road trip car.
If you're handy, making repairs are fairly straightforward.
I bought an S80 with 322000 km om the clock, 2.5 turbo with the 5 speed auto. what a car. almost all features work. love it, it uses a lot of fuel but it's so nice to drive. most technical things are lifted from the 850 so it's easy to work on
Thank you for the Volvo upload! Glad to see you back
I still have my 2005 V70 and I have had none of these problems. This is not a complaint.
My 2003 S60 D5 has the rubber coating peeling off from the door handles and the computer screen almost never works but luckily i can still use the webasto-heater. Also the colour is coming off of the parking brake sleeve plastic. No other issues at all so far. 315k kilometers on the clock. I have driven her for 15k kilometers during the six months of owning her.
My 2009 XC90 also with the same P2 chassis with 370,000km on the clock still runs like a champ and the gearbox is still going strong. Sure she may not be the sexiest car on the parking lot but she just keep going and going.
very usefull and interesting video. I have a 2000 Volvo S60 2.0T 5 speed manual and totally agree with the issues and that stuff!!!
Good video ;)
Well done, I have two of these cars, you have made a comprehensive list here.
Super advise, loved it! Came to your channel on the Discovery 3/4 advise. I saw how detailed you got and checked my car... the S60 mark one and I have to say, you nailed the common problems.
So, I now am, since two weeks, the (proud) owner of a 2004 2.4 170HP S60 with automatic gearbox and... ow, and yeah, 307.000 KM on it (190,761 Miles). Problems I have:
1) airco does not work after 10 minutes, and indeed as you mention too wide of gap with the magnetic clutch. My solution not buy a new AC Clutch and not use chimes, but to let an independant repair garage take away one distancing ring... at the cost of 50 Euro.
2) I have a problem with the Cruise Control (very common) which most likely, and also in my case is a to big of gap between the brakepedal and the sensor of the Cruise Control (again security: No brake pedal found, so no Cruise Control possible). Solution: Put a vilt between the brake pedal and the sensor.
I also do reconize:
- Poorly made armrest
- A lot of Squeeks (although here in the Netherlands our roads can be compaired with silk... all roads are good maintenanced)
- Coating of door handles are peeling off (bought the car with an aftermarket 2-DIN radio, so do not know about stock radio)
Other problems told to me are exactly as you mention, but I do not have them.
As I read on the internets, Volvo's are very well designed, can take a lot of miles and the main stucture will not break... the problems are in the details (squeeky things and easy/cheap fixes).
Thanks for your vids... they seem to be very complete and accurate!
I have a V70 with the same engine and I agree the smooth roads really dampen any squeeks. Only on speed bumps do I hear something. So far only the auto roll-down window system broke but I don’t think I’ll be repairing it. It’s sitting at 200.000 now and I hope I’ll get to drive it for years to come, Volvo’s find a way to your heart.
This is funny! I have an 03' S60 AWD.
1. I had a my fuel pump go out at 158k(turns out it was a recall) Volvo wouldn't fix this due to it being past their 10 year rule.
2. The speedometer started flickering off and on and eventually went at 188k(and I mean the dials everything on the cluster don't work.(But if you look closely at the dash you can see a dim lighting of the mileage)
3. The ABS went out at 190k. I also changed out the Axles, wheel bearings, rotors, and brakes at 188k so idk if it was something I did.
So I have experienced a lot of these problems BUT I will still say that its a pretty tuff vehicle! I live 12 miles out on a country road and this thing is a killer on gravel and in the snow. Its radio which for being a stock stereo for 2003 is kickass! Also the lather is still in good including the driver side surprisingly. Its currently sitting at 234k and the speedo cluster doesn't work at all but I use and app. on my phone to tell how fast I'm going. It still runs like a champ! Currently looking to buy another bc I like it so much.
This ks. Wanna know how you used to check your fuel gauge. Currently has SA.e problem. Thanks.
Very comprehensive review, not really much to add other than it seems that a lot of 'small' issues were improved in the facelifted cars between 2005-2007. For example the automatic gearbox servo, the AWD, some electronics (ETM, ABS, maybe some more?) seem to cause less frequent issues compared to the 2000-2004/2005 cars.
My father owned 2002 d5 120 kw manual from 80000km to 220000km. PROS: best seats in its class, good fuel consumption (6-7) liters, great highway stability, good performance but they are electronicly blocked to 210 kmh (225 kmh on the tacho), good sound isolation eksept for the tyre noise, great engine sound, good sound system, good rust protection. NEGATIVE: interier plastics (front armrest area), small back passenger space, quickley worn suspension parts, clima clutch puley, We had to replace all five injectors (150 eur a piece). Overall it was a good car (never let us on the side of the road).
Do you mean 220000km? It did it really have 2.2 million km :O
I own S60 from 2006. Plastics are okay but Interior has good quality.
You have core plug failure?
My 2000 Automatic 2.4 Petrol (140) V70 P2 with 190,000 Miles has had only few issues in its lifetime. Currently it’s suffering from a very very slight leak in the steering rack and a parasitic battery drain. Still drives great. Solid car
Its just the way you drive the car can safe you for most issues! My car 200000 Km 2001 after 20 years first exhaust!
Two drive shafts ,Abs motor and a few minor issues! So I think to drive this car for an other 20 years.!!
Straight to the point and very clear. Thank you so much for the information!
Very useful Video , I just bought a 270,000 kilometer V70 2.4 Manual , rare but its very good , It has the leak from the filler hose when refueling Thanks for that , Big Help , other wise the car seems solid and drives very well for its 19 years , because they are oldish cars now I would not buy a Turbo XC70 or and Automatic as I have read about expensive bills, Great Video thank you
I bought my 2009 Volvo S60 SE new in 2009. It now has 52,000 miles and had been babied..I change oil with Mobil 1 full synthetic every 3000 miles and change all fluids/filters and maintenance needs regularly. I just had the timing belt kit replaced for the 2nd time (age) and changed plugs for the first time.. My car runs just like it always has…like a new car. This model was the last of the genuine Volvo’s produced prior to the companies purchase by Ford. I should explain. I was a Volvo dealer head service advisor for 30+ years and am now retired. My car has always been serviced by the same master mechanic and his skill and care shows… Taken good care of, these cars are pretty much bulletproof. I intend to drive mine until I no longer drive….
Most comprehensive video on buying older Volvo cars!
Small one but super common, fuel cap door hinge breaks on all of them. Easy fix but it stops the door from locking automatically.
Very good review--much detail.
I bought new 2006 xc70 and it's been incredibly reliable. The car will never let you stranded. 230,000 km.
Don't flush the gearbox oil, only do a drain and fill on it.
See volvo forums for more details on this.
Great video, has all the major issues!
Its true, if you buy the car new and flush it its entire life it won't hurt, but it also won't help. Just a drain and fill every 30k mi / 48k km is good enough. But people don't understand the damage a flush can do to a trans with 200k mi on it thats never had the oil changed
@@wutanglan6381 yes it's too late to flush it if it wasn't flushed when newer/when it had less kms.
The '06 S60 has a really big turning radius. Not so good, makes it a pain to get it into a garage in a narrow alley, for example.
Excellent Video. I am going to look at a 2009 S60 with 123k miles. Thank You
Great video informative and entertaining. Keep up the good work.
Love these vids
Great video Thank you 👍🏻
Detailed video, like it!
I just bought an 02 S60 2.4T automatic. Described my car to a T. Drat.
Great video on “potential” problems, I’m looking to buy a V70 they seem like great cars 🚙
They are!
thank you for your work
3:56 Stunning design! Still looks great in 2022!
Thank you! Great info!
Best video on RUclips!
Full of important information, I like it.
Great review. Can you please review the 2nd. Gen S60 as well ? and also the 2nd. Gen Citroen C5, Volvo S80 (2nd. Gen) and Lexus LS430. Thank you 😊
Great video!
Perfect video review
My 2003 S60 had failed headlight wiper motors. They still worked, but were corroded beyond repair so they simply wasted power or blew the headlight washer fuse.. I basically ended up taking them out and plugging the T junction for the washer fluid.
Also, two of my windows fell, rather, the window sliding blocks would fail, then the window would fall on one side. Sometimes when going up, the window would get stuck on the insulating rubber, the one on the outside. If you don't replace the sliding blocks on time, they can damage or completely ruin the regulator. Mine got bent into a U shape and had to be replaced (both times, when either of the window lifting mechanisms failed).
There is also an issue with the etm modules with early production petrol cars. Not a cheap fix and can definitely ruin your day :D great videos, thanks!
please make a video about Volvo S40 (2nd gen) especially want to hear about t5 version :)
Right story about the volvo. I have v70 p2 2.4D5 120kw automatic transmission. One thing more if the fuel pump dies on the inside of the tank then the car left you on the road. Even if the fuel indicator shows you 150km more. i have changed my car brakes,injectors, air flow sensor and so on... one notice more if the generator belt tensioner pulley goes broke. Then the belt can also take with him the engine belt and destroy the whole engine!
Any 15 year car can broke, same bmw or audi
One problem that caught me out was the Altenator Pulley ( 2002 S80 2.4 NA 170 hp ) - it has a one way bearing in it. Mine failed & caused severe heat & fried the altenator, fortunately it stayed on the shaft & didn't throw the serpentine belt off - this can wrap around the crank pulley in a manner that takes the timing belt out = goodbye engine !!
That happened to my s60 2004. Alternator pulley fell off but luckily the belt did not ruin the engine
@@yahormashkou5657 Wow, it sounds like Volvo didn't think that design through xD
This just happened with mine! Except i noticed it walking and a weird clicking and rubbing noise from it and its parked until i replace it, going to just replace the entire alternator since its going to be apart anyway. Car has 145k and they go around that time anyway
Bought an S60 with 90000km on it and 1 owner. Great condition but nice to know what to look out for!
very useful information in this video
Very very nice ! Can you do a review for the XC60 first gen !? Thanks !
Interesting, I don't have any of the aforementioned issues except for some rattling noises in the cabin. But I do have a plethora of all sorts of electronics issues.
MAN great video
Just a picky thing but the CNG bi-fuel only has about 185Nm of torque when running on CNG, when running on petrol it is the same as the 2.4 140Hk (220Nm).
Lol the editing keeps getting better
What is said at minute 11 is so true.... the transmission oil does not last forever. It should be flushed well before it reaches 300 000 kilometers. And then oil should be changed regularly
Thinking about buying xc70 p2 on D5 and manual or a6 c6 allroad and after this still not clear ^^ but anyway thank you for information provided
gunars treikals c6 had 2.5 tdi?!
Thats a problematic motor
If someone will be smart enough to check this before buying (I did not) but here is my experience with v70 2001, D5, with ~360k km. In two years time I have changed -
1. Clutch and double mass flywheel
2. Power steering mechanism (without the pump)
3. Front shocks
4. All the brake discs and pads
5. New handbrake lines and pads
6. Front rubber bushings for suspension
7. One engine mount
What still needs to be done:
1. Rear rubber bushings
1. Rear electronic module causes locks to behave strangely
2. Instrument cluster needs re-soldering (very common issue for pre-face lift)
3. Rear wiper does not work (could be related to REM module also)
4. Fuel gauge is lying for about 1 division. Could be related to fuel pump between the two tanks.
5. Break pedal rubber seal is leaking - mentioned in this video.
1st part cost me about 1.6k euros in total. Remaining will likely add up to another 400 - 600 euros.
Summary is that, I like the car so much, this money does not feel wasted in any way. Looking forward to driving another 300k. Most of the issues, are somewhat common and seems that I only got lucky with so many in one car, but boy does it feels good. 18 years and still has the typical Volvo scent inside. Love it.
Kristaps Liepnieks you have core plug issue?
@@vladdragu6093 Not sure what are the symptoms. Engine has leaked a little amount of oil at around the upper part but not so much for me to do anything about it and it seems rather old, so I just did not pay too much attention to it. (That is, if plug you mentioned is related to oil leaks)
Since my first comment, I have gotten the instrument cluster fixed and it break again - good thing for warranty.
I also had the REM module replaced together with bunch of relays - this fixed the rear door locks, rear wiper and tailgate never unlocking.
Also got the auxiliary heater fixed (Changed the plug, fuel pump and the combustion chamber had some major parts swapped) but it quickly failed again - this time don't think it's the heater itself. I saw a comment somewhere that it can be related to instrument cluster (The heater worked once after I got it re-soldered) but failed again afterwards. Then I also had and issue with the right side mirror, which I think also contains the temperature sensor, which could be the reason for the heater to not turn on.
Sorry for the long comment, to whomever it may concern, but these issues more often than not cause each other and I would have been happy to find a source on internet at least pointing in general direction.
I ve owend 2 S60 D5 for years.More possible problems: Flywheel need replace around 100k ao both cars, stereo failed on both more then once, water pump failed aroud 120k, fuel pump in the tank aroun 130k , many limp mode warnings . Very confortable cars ,but lots of problems mainly on pre-facelift models.
How did you repair the stereo ? Mine has the front left speaker not making any sound.
@@ganbashana my had same problem i replaced the speaker for a junk yard one
Awesome 👌thank u
Hello...your video is very nice...can you make a similar video for BMW Ε34;
Hi, first of all, thanks for the videos. Really useful and comprehensive info. Could you maybe do more japanese brands? I would be interested for example in the 3rd gen Prius, or the Auris Hybrid, which has the same drivetrain. Cheers.
The short version. Buy one then hope for the best...
hey. i really like your videos. :) can you please review Volvo V70 from 2011! i want to buy one and would like for your advice! thank you.. :)
might be getting an S60 D5 soon
lower ball joints wear out REALLY FAST so keep that in mind.
Atleast you can replace just the ball joint and not a full arm like on anything german 😁
Lmao. i have s60 2002 i just discovered i have hole in that fuel line right there where it was in that picture (under car filling tube). i will just fix it with silicone. Also very good video 👍
This video doesn't deter me from buying a Volvo but it definitely is a good tutorial on what to watch out for. I used to own a '03 s60 2.5T. I LOVED it. But it sure was expensive to repair.. control arms, sway bars, power window regulator, etc. I left the country and had to get rid of it. I'll be going back to the States soon and will be in the market for a car. I thinking a 2014+ Toyota Avalon. But if I'm not able to find one under $10K, why not just get a used s60/v70 for about $3k and put up to $2K into it? I'd spend less and still be able to drive a great car. My ideal trim would be the T5, that way you get the turbo without the worry of your engine blocks cracking. I wanted the manual version but after seeing this video, maybe I'll just stick with the automatic. So, thanks for that!
I've heard negative stuff about the T5 transmission, but I am by no means an expert. Just be careful out there with research!
E.g. I've heard RUclips comments saying RIP to all the T5 Volvos in the scrapyard because of a bad transmission. I'm not sure if it's true though
You might have to put more than 2000.00 in your Volvo because every part is pricey
Also check the pistons in the front brake calipers, mine had corroded very badly on the inside of the piston.
That’s why you should change the brakefluid once a year or every other year.
@@alfredpalsson The brake fluid has nothing to do with the inside of the pistons, this is caused by moisture over the years from road spray.
@@NeilD163 ok I thought your piston was stuck from not changing the brakefluid in time. I work as a mechanic and that is a very common issue.
This is one of the few cars it seems where you can replace the heater core _without_ needing to remove the dash, *if* it's LHD.
Very interesting 🤔
Yikes, well now I'm definitely getting a FWD with a manual gearbox. Perhaps even the standard 2.4 N/A to be extra safe. No reason getting an AWD if the system does not work
This makes me want a 240 series even more. The newer all car models get, the worse they are.
Best cars made.
Volvo S60 P3 common problems pls. Thank you
verrryy strrrrong and accurrrrate inforrrrmation. :)
Bought one 2 years ago for 3000 euro. 2002 S60 170HP Manual.
It had 173 000 KM on the clock, now 242 000.
I would advice the manual to everyone it's bulletproof and shifts like new still.
Also the 170HP option is a perfect midway for speed and relability.
Spend like 3500 in the first year.
All normal stuff because of age.
Rubbers, belts, ac, thermo, trottle body, steering power pump etc.
Now it drives like new for almost s year without no problems.
Only oil changes and breaks.
I would advice it to everyone that wants a perfect all rounder car.
You can't expect something without wanting to spend money on it. Sure you can buy a Toyota, but does it give you the same feeling like this Swedish beauty?
You chose yourself.
How about Volvo S60/V60 2010-2018?
when are you doing mazda 6 from 2002-2007?

I drive a Volvo S60 142 HP from 2008. It has 160,000 km on the clock. Engine and automatic gearbox have never been a problem. I lost most of the expenses to replace a headlight unit (the car has rotating headlights). Moisture had entered the unit because the bonding adhesive had melted in the hot sun of the Cote d'Azur. A new unit cost 800 euros including installation. In addition, the upholstery of the A-pillars came loose twice. The first time I was able to obtain a spare part twice, the second time (a few years later) spare parts were no longer supplied and I had to have the upholstery replaced by a specialist company. Both times I spent more than 200 euros on what in my eyes was twice a manufacturing defect. Unfortunately, Volvo thought otherwise. I found both the defective headlight unit and the peeling upholstery idiotic, unnecessary misses for a car brand that wants to profile itself as an A-brand.
Hello dcr, because of your years of experience...What is your expert opinion on a 2005 VOLVO S40 ts 5cyl 93k are there any mechanical issues one should know about?
I don't believe anyone will buy a Volvo after watching this clip.
On the other hand, you are very right about everything in here.
Do the Saab 9-5!
Can you do video about volvo v40 1997-2004 please?
Bro do a video for volvo s60 2011 pls
I thought the Volvo s80 was the sedan version of the Volvo v70 but anyways great review and can you please make one about Skoda Superb
s80 has a much bigger engine always, the newer ones have v8 and I think older ones too, some had v6, but these cars use 5 cylinder.
@@MrKushinator420 the first generation s80 used the same engines as the s60/v70 i.e. 2.4-2.5 petrol NA and turbocharged engines aswell as the d5. The T6 however was specific only to the first gen s80, T6 is an inline/straight 6 and not a v6
@@MrKushinator420 not true, the S80 is absolutely the sedan version of the V70 and also the XC70. Engines are the same, other than the v8 (which I actually have haha). Would be interesting to have a V8 wagon but I suppose it wouldn't sell well.
@@wutanglan6381 Nah, it's the saloon. Sedan is s60.

Got a 2005 s60 t5 with 93k on the clock as a beater/shitbox from some elderly guy who owned it since new. Hoping it’ll last me another 20k without major hiccups.
