Additional Notes

  • The Volvo S80 2.5 T carries an automatic transaxle fluid capacity of 7.2 liters, a figure consistent with a service fill rather than a full overhaul, as complete drain-and-fill procedures on sealed automatic transaxles typically recover only a portion of total system volume.
  • Both the 2005 and 2006 S80 2.5 T share identical fluid capacity and change interval specifications, with no variation between the two model years in the automatic transaxle data.
  • The 52,000-mile change interval listed for both model years applies specifically under severe use conditions, meaning the interval is tied to more demanding operating circumstances rather than standard driving cycles.
  • A 7.2-liter capacity for an automatic transaxle places the S80 2.5 T in a range typical of transversely mounted front-wheel-drive units, where the transmission and differential share a common housing and fluid supply.
