Hi Everyone,

I just purchased a minor frontal crashed 2010 XC90 that I am fixing up. I have almost all front end components off for the repair.

Since I have great access to the engine and its parts, I was wondering what are the things I should change while I am in there?

Its a 2010 XC90 3.2 AWD with 144,000KM on it.

Any feedback would be greatly appreciated, here is a picture of how it currently sits in my garage.

 

PCV system hoses and oil separator perhaps?

 

PCV is on top of the engine and can be done any time.

I'd recommend replacement of the thermostat assembly. Common failure. Not hard to replace but easier in that state.

 

Which PCV hoses/oil separator are you referring to?

 

Definitely looking into replacing the thermostat assembly, looks like its a rougher job once everything is back together. Unfortunately it is pretty pricey
