Bevel gear oil flush/Turbo V70-XC70

posted by  someone claiming to be Andy on  Wed Jul 25 02:41 CST 2007 [RELATED]

Ryan,

Follow the rear driveshaft (aka propshaft) to the transmission, the bevel gear housing is the exit point on the transmission where the rear driveshaft leaves the transmission. There is no drain on this unit -- some folks do drill and tap one in -- but standard drain & refill is done by loosening unit, replace seal, and then refill.

Turbo bearings are water cooled from engine coolant and lubed with engine oil, sounds like you have the classic and common oil return line weeping oil. Head over to Volvospeed.com and check out http://volvospeed.com/maintence.htm (aka Bay 13).
