Many vehicle owners seek private import car repair shops due to the high prices at service centers. While I can’t provide an exact estimate, I’ve heard that private shops tend to be cheaper. They often use synthetic oil instead of regular oil, which allows for better specifications. However, the issue remains that there aren’t many specialized shops available yet, leaving many people unsure about where to go.
These days, if you search blogs or video resources, you’ll find detailed information that can guide you! Just reach out to us after reviewing, and we’ll provide the same service.
For those interested?! Reading this carefully is a must!

From the composition of imported car consumables to the replacement process, this is a Volvo XC60 D5.

01. Introducing the components
The Volvo XC60 D5 features a diesel engine and an Aisin transmission. I recommend oil based on specifications and viscosity, including filters.
Therefore, I always recommend oils with higher specifications, considering the price to ensure cost-effectiveness.
02. Explanation of the work process
I replace the oil filter,
The cartridge style is located at the bottom of the engine.
I thoroughly clean the housing cup and replace the internal filter and O-ring.
This method offers more precision and cleanliness than typical service centers!
I then drain the transmission oil.
The recommended replacement cycle is around 70,000 kilometers, but many people come in after exceeding that limit.
First, I drain the transmission oil as much as possible.
I also replace the air cleaner.
This component filters out foreign substances from the incoming air, allowing only clean air into the engine. The recommended replacement cycle is over 30,000 kilometers, but even after just 10,000 kilometers, it gets dirty quickly.;
It’s best to perform this replacement whenever you change the engine oil.
The aftermarket product costs about 20,000 to 30,000 won (approximately $15 to $23 USD), but considering engine protection, output, and fuel efficiency, replacing this filter is definitely worth it.
I then inject the engine oil.
The Volvo XC60 and all other models are sensitive to oil quantity, so it’s essential to familiarize yourself with the manual and check the actual amount using gauges and scanners to achieve accurate leveling.
The color and quantity indicate that the XC60 has received a proper oil change.
During the process, I refill a full bottle of washer fluid!
We perform this process twice for certification.
03. Resetting the engine oil and confirming the work
While it’s difficult to check the oil quantity for Volvo, I monitor it as much as possible using the scanner.
The service cycle is similar to other vehicles, set at 360 days, which is five days shorter than the standard 365 days, with a mileage of 15,000 kilometers.
The transmission oil replacement cycle doesn’t require a separate reset!
The total time taken was about one hour to one and a half hours.
I have posted work records for various Volvo models, and I am satisfied with the results! This was the XC60 D5.
Taking photos while working is not easy, and writing this record separately takes time.
I work hard to provide this information before your visit!
I hope you look forward to the next post!
