I have a friend with a 2001 XC70 who gets his car serviced regularly at a highly reputable shop in town. Recently he had a wheel come loose after some brake work. The car was towed back to the shop who quickly picked up the car, examined it, and retorqued the wheels to 105 lbs. A week later the same...

Drain/fill every 30k until the car takes it's last breathe.
