Mine started pee peeing after 56k, so I dealt with it for a year and saved up for a Clutch, CSC and Fly Wheel.

They were nown for a premature pee peeing CSC

2006 S60 D5 185 and it went at 62k

mine went at 150k without warning....it wasn't leaking at all....

.....while in there they fitted New Clutch kit and Dual Mass Flywheel too

the flywheel had loads of play in it (Compared to the brand new Volvo one) and although there were no signs of this when driving it was prudent to fit a new one.

S60 D5 (185).

The slave cyliner went a couple of weeks ago at 104k. The fluid contaminated the clutch so that was replaced but decided not to replace the DMF - time will tell if that was wise.

Smedley did you measure the free-play in the DMF at all?
did you also replace the plastic plug with the uprated metal one?

No, I wasn't able to inspect the DMF at all it was all done by phone. I was guided by the description by the the garage who said it looked in reasonable shape.

I am also now depressed, just over 97k (2007 2.4D S60), its due the service and cam belt, no doubt will need new tyres again (it always needs new tyres at every service!) and I think the rear discs are getting ready..... That lot with a clutch, DMF and slave cylinder will probably be about the same as the value of the car!

Would i be wrong in hoping this is only a S60/V70 problem? Or can it be expected on a S80 too?

well further to my recent thread mine went at 107k no signs of leakage or failure, clutch just went to the floor leaving my street. Took the clutch with it but the DMF was fine so I've stuck with it. Time will tell on that choice I suppose. Given how compartivaly accessable parts are for repair on this I found it odd Volvo went for an internal slave cylinder, had a read in my Haynes and it sounds like a horrid job.
