Default Gearbox oil change.

Hello everyone. I've got '07 volvo xc90 2.4 D5 136kw, and want to change my oil by DIY. Maybe yall know some good video where it shows how to do that? At volvo service they want 300€ for the change, and i think i could do it by myself. Thanks for any info you could give me

I looked at the video, and it doesnt show where to check for gearbox drain bolt, maybe how to fill gearbox with oil again. Maybe you know any more videos? I tried looking, but haven't been lucky with looking for that type a video for diesel😄

https://www.matthewsvolvosite.com/fo...ic.php?t=88548 is a good thread to read through.

full disclosure - never done this on a Volvo but have on an Audi and the process I used was similar to the posting above. Essentially you need to find the drain bolt and the fill bolt - if you only have access to a fill bolt you can siphon out the fluid then you need a Squeeze bottle or similar to push the fresh gear oil up and back in via the fill bolt. The bolt hole sets the level but you can also measure what you took out to predict the amount that goes back in. Should be something less than a quart. You can find a fully synthetic 75/90 GL5 from a range of vendors (I used Redline but Valvoline, Mobil1 etc all have products) at about $20 or so. Also, always use new crush washers...
