Spark Plug Tube Seal
I recently discovered that I have oil in the spark plug tubes for my 2012 Volvo S60. I have purchased replacement seals and I am wondering what techniques people use to remove the oil from the spark plug tubes before replacing the seals and spark plugs?

2012 Volvo S60 T5
Hello Everyone,
I going to attempt to change the spark plugs and coils on my S60 today. I've never done anything like this before. Any advice for me before I get started?

Parking Break Service Required Message after New Brake Pads and Rotors
I posted this in another section of the forum but it was the wrong place so I am re-posting here. I apologize for the redundancy. I had new pads and rotors installed on my 2012 Volvo S60 and the message "parking brake service required" popped up. The technician was not able to clear the me...

Parking Break Service Required Message after New Brake Pads and Rotors
I had new pads and rotors installed on my 2012 Volvo S60 and the message "parking brake service required popped up" the technician was not able to clear it because the OBD2 port is "unreadable". I had him check the fuses and all seems well. Can anyone advise my next trouble shoot...

Re: Tires for Volvo S60?
Hello E Showell! Thanks for the reply. I appreciate SO much for taking the time to respond to my post. Here are the answers to your questions: I am about 1 hour from the mountainous areas of Virginia, so, likely, I will not be in this area with any frequency. I DO have significant experience driving...

Tires for Volvo S60?
Hello Volvo Owners! I have a 2012 Volvo S60 T5 FWD and it needs tires. I lived into Houston and never had to worry about snow, but I recently moved east and now I'm not sure what types of tires to buy for the winter. Do I need a snow tire (I'm in Virginia), or will an all season tire work? I hate to...

Re: Intermittent AC 2012 Volvo S60
Hi jlh3rd! Thanks for the reply! I thought I'd get notifications of replies in my email but I didn't so I assumed no one replied (sorry for the delay). I ended up replacing the compressor. I lived in Houston and it was over 100 degrees and 90% humidity the next day after I wrote this. So I bit the b...

Intermittent AC 2012 Volvo S60
Hello Everyone! My AC has been working intermittently for the past year; and believe me that is very uncomfortable in Texas! It will blow ice cold, then blow hot. Really hot. Eventually it will come on again. I've taken it to four different places for diagnosis and no one can tell me what is wrong. ...
