When you own a Volvo XC60, you must perform regular maintenance on your car to ensure its smooth running and longer lifespan. You must check for oils and fluids such as the engine oil, power steering, and washer fluid. These maintenance tasks are performed in the engine compartment, which houses components such as the engine, power steering fluid reservoir, radiator, coolant expansion tank, and brake and clutch fluid reservoir.
To access the engine compartment, you will have to open the hood of your car. By following the steps listed below, you can open the hood of your Volvo XC60 without breaking a sweat.
