WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Volvo C70, 2001 Volvo C70, 2000 Volvo C70, 1999 Volvo C70, and 1998 Volvo C70. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

When replacing pipes/hoses, oil can be filled through the service valve.

When filling PAG-oil (part no. 1161627) in the vehicle, proceed as follows:

Remove the needle valve in the service valve using valve tool 9511204

Use the filling syringe (without plastic hose) supplied with the unit to top up the oil. Clean the syringe to avoid the possibility of mixing different types of oil.

Check according to the table above. Measure how much oil is to be added. After topping up the oil, reinstall the needle valve.

NOTE: Use only your thumb and index finger when tightening the service valve using valve needle tool 9511204 . This is to prevent damage to the seal on the valve.
