Checking and Draining Oil
WARNING
Serious burns can result from contact with a hot en-
gine or engine oil. Take precautions when draining the
oil. Wear gloves and let the engine cool down before
draining.
For further information concerning component specifica-
tions see service information in Group 1, “Oil and Filter
Change Intervals for Volvo Components, All Models”,
Publication Number 175-001, and any appropriate ven-
dor literature.
Check the oil level through the top plug. The oil should
be level with the hole. Add oil if necessary.
Drain oil through the bottom plug. Drain oil immediately
after driving the vehicle, so that the oil is hot.
Note: Also check the rear axle ventilation for blockage.
Blockage can cause extreme pressure in the axle and
create leaks.
