Additional Notes

  • The Volvo S80 2.5 T carries a power steering fluid capacity of 0.8–0.9 liter for the 2005 model year, while the 2006 model year lists a fixed capacity of 0.8 liter.
  • A capacity expressed as a range, such as the 0.8–0.9 liter figure for the 2005 S80 2.5 T, typically reflects a tolerance window during a service fill, accounting for minor variation in fluid remaining within the system.
  • The 2006 S80 2.5 T narrows the capacity to a single value of 0.8 liter, which represents a more precise service fill specification compared to the range listed for the prior model year.
  • Both the 2005 and 2006 S80 2.5 T share the same service check interval of 7,500 miles or 12 months, whichever comes first, under normal use conditions.
  • A 12-month interval tied to a mileage threshold means that lower-mileage drivers still reach a service check point on a calendar basis, regardless of distance traveled.
