They said that as it was not part of the standard service schedule it was not included but agreed to change it at cost which was £160 which I agreed to. When I took it in for its final free 5th year service I was prepared to pay again for the trans fluid change but they told me that Volvo now state that every 5th year the fluid should be changed on all irrespective of towing or not. That being the case they said it was part of the free service. It's the first time I have had a nice surprise from a main dealer!
The term 'sealed for life' is widely held on many forums to be a completely hollow claim.

Thanks for the info.. I never adhere to sealed for life, or sealed for warranty....
