How to Check the Oil Level on a Volvo

Model: Volvo Xc60 MK 2 - Years 2017-2026
Part: Checks and maintenance

Learn how to check the oil level on a Volvo (in this case, it is an XC60, but on recent models of this brand, the oil level is no longer checked with a dipstick, but through a digital display). Turn on the instrument cluster and press the "OK" button on the steering wheel (usually located on the left side). Also on the left side, you will find a knob that allows you to navigate the menu until you see "oil". Press "OK" to select, and the display will show the oil level. Pay attention to a few details: the engine must be off, as the electronic check requires the ignition on but the engine off; of course, the car must be perfectly level. Check the owner's manual, as some models require the oil to be at operating temperature.

Pull this lever towards you until you hear a "click" indicating the bonnet is released. Next, exit the cabin and stand in front of the bonnet to disengage the safety catch and complete the opening. To do this, slightly lift the bonnet, locate the yellow lever underneath, and pull it to the left to fully release and open the bonnet.
