Book Excerpt: Volvo S60, X to 09 Reg, Gasoline and Diesel Repair Manual 2000-2009 INTRODUCTION

The Volvo S60 Saloon was introduced in 2001 and shares similar running gear and appearance with the larger S80 model. The stylish, 5-door, front-wheel drive models were given a "soft" facelift in 2004, including minor changes to the front and rear bumpers, and some aspects of the interior.

YOUR VOLVO MANUAL

The aim of this manual is to help you get the best value from your vehicle. It can do so in several ways. It can help you decide what work must be done (even should you choose to get it done by a garage). It will also provide information on routine maintenance and servicing, and give a logical course of action and diagnosis when random faults occur. However, it is hoped that you will use the manual by tackling the work yourself. On simpler jobs it may even be quicker than booking the car into a garage and going there twice, to leave it and to get it. Perhaps most important, a lot of money can be saved by avoiding the costs a garage must charge to cover its labor and overhead. The manual has drawings and descriptions to show the function of the various components so that their layout can be understood, and tasks are described and photographed in a clear step-by-step sequence.

MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES

This Chapter is designed to help the home mechanic maintain his or her vehicle for safety, economy, long life and peak performance. The Chapter contains a master maintenance schedule with Sections dealing specifically with each task in the schedule. Visual checks, adjustments, component renewal and other helpful items are included. Servicing your vehicle in accordance with the mileage and time maintenance schedule and the following Sections will provide a planned maintenance program, which should result in a long and reliable service life.

The Volvo S60 is a very well engineered car. It should last you a very, very long time if you regularly maintain and service you S60. We believe this repair manual will surely help you DIY your repairs and service to extend the life of your car.
