Replacing Cabin Filter on Volvo V60 (also applicable to XC60-S60)

Model: Volvo V60 MK 1 - Years 2010-2018
Part: Cabin air filter

In this video, you will see how to replace the air filter on the Volvo V60 (this procedure also applies to the S60 and XC60 models). The first step is to choose the right tools; specifically, you will need: T25 Torx, 8 mm wrench, 10 mm wrench, flathead screwdriver, and a ratchet. Now you can begin. Start by removing the battery cover, then disconnect the negative cable using the 10 mm wrench. Next, remove the panel under the glove compartment using the Torx, and then remove the two bolts with the 8 mm wrench. After that, open the glove compartment and unscrew the other 6 screws with the Torx to take it off, carefully disconnecting the light connectors. Continuing with the process, lower the two gray clips and disconnect all the connectors from the white fuse box, then remove it. Repeat the same procedure with the black fuse box, which also needs to be removed. Finally, you will find the airbox cover. Open the two clips and replace the worn air filter with a new one. Now proceed in reverse order to reassemble everything.
