Radiator Hoses S70 2000

posted by  someone claiming to be dpsc on  Tue Mar 2 03:39 CST 2004 [RELATED]

I agree with ME about changing the hoses. Whoever is the manufactuer for Volvo makes good product. If you don't have any leaks/cracks and the hoses show no signs of ruptures or weak spots, don't replace em.

I live in So. California and have had several mechanics who just loved to tell you that you must do this or this at certain intervals. My current mechanic is the greatest and tells me that too much money is wasted because of these intervals. My '95T Wagon has 132,000 and the hoses are original. My radiator needs to be replaced soon, so they will also be changed, but as originals they show no signs of failure.
