Checks after replacing the transmission
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 8 other vehicles, including the 2006 Volvo S80, 2005 Volvo S80, 2004 Volvo S80, 2003 Volvo S80, and 2002 Volvo S80. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Top up and check the engine coolant level before and during the test drive.
Check the oil level. See Checking the oil level .
NOTE:
If the transmission is replaced with a new or exchange transmission, it is supplied filled with oil plus a certain amount of "excess". This is to compensate for loss from the oil cooler. The oil level must always be checked however.
WARNING:
The lower engine coolant hose positioned by the dip stick is extremely hot. Use protective gloves when moving the hose to the side.
Test drive the car
Use the test driving schedule. See.
NOTE:
Check that no diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) have been stored during the test drive.
