Re: Oil Changes S40-V40 2001

I own a '00 V40, I believe oil changing is the same as the S40.

Yes, you need a special filter wrench.

I found most of the quick-oil-change places don't have them yet. I bought mine from:

Or, order it from your Volvo dealer (usually takes much longer).

For the procedure, here is a rough outline:

Hope this helps.
