I’ve done c 25,000 miles since I bought the car in Jan 18, now close to 160k. It had a long term owner before me who seemed to have had it looked after reasonably well.

Since I’ve had it, I’ve done the following as preventative/routine maintenance

Engine oil and filter 3x (Shell Helix 5w40 A3/B4 and Volvo or Mann filters)
Volvo aux belt and tensioner (couldn’t see that it was done when the cam belt was done at 85k)
Air, cabin and fuel filters (Volvo or Mann)
10 litres of Mannol ATF (2 x 5 litres c. 6,000 miles apart). Will do the same again until 20 litres have gone through it, then 5 litres every time I change the engine oil.
Volvo discs and pads all round, Volvo handbrake shoes, and aftermarket handbrake cables.
Partial change of PAS fluid (Comma Pentosin)

I’ve also fitted a factory sub, and factory accessories like the rear bumper skid plate and the sill rubbing strips. Oh, and facelift roof bars.

I need to change the exhaust and one Nivomat. Next big service I’ll do the cambelt and the auxiliary belt.

What I’ve not done is to service the Haldex. What should I be doing?
