How to Replace the Coolant in a Volvo S80?

Model: Volvo S80 MK 2 - Years 2006-2016
Part: Antifreeze coolant

To replace the coolant in a Volvo S80, access the lower part of the engine bay: immediately behind the front bumper, you will find the hose connected to the radiator, which must be disconnected to allow the coolant to flow into a suitably positioned container. Once all the coolant has drained out, reconnect the hose and proceed with the top-up: this should be done by inserting the coolant into the designated filler located at the top left of the engine bay.
