Default Service intervalls S60 '01?

I can't find any type of service intervall info on my newly bought s60. It has stamps for every service up to 100000 km, and now it is at around 140000 km. I've already changed the timing belt since it was over 10 years old, but I'm planning on servicing the entire car the coming months. But, I can't find what is actually meant to be done or not. I'd rather not buy the Haynes manual only for service info.

What I think I know so far is:
oil, oil filter, air filter, timing belt, serpetine belt, tensioners and etc, fuel pump, fuel filter, brake pads, brake fluid, steering fluid(?), coolant and what else?

I'm asking since I've only owned cars from the 70s before and have honestly no clue as to what needs to be done on a modern car with all the electrical stuff.

And with new modern cars, if anything is wrong with the car. Will it tell me what with the computer? Like let's say the VVT fails, will that pop up?

there was a really good link I've got bookmarked on the work PC with all the P2 platform cars and an easy to read breakdown of all the service items, but I can't currently find it being at home

there's this though which might help https://www.volvoclub.org.uk/tech/se...gramme-S60.pdf

is it an auto in which case definitely add transmission fluid drain and fill to your common items list

no. it'll just say engine service required, or the EML light or something like that

the best thing to do is get your hands on VIDA software (free to download from various places) and a VCX or DICE tool which you connect from laptop usb to the ODB2 port, that is really the only reliable way of checking all the modules in the car and getting all the details of faults. also includes good diagrams / instructions / part lists

do some searches on that topic and I'm sure you'll find info

This is great, haven't been able to find anything like this so far. Now to just convert everything to km and get to business.

I think my workshop already has an odb2 reader along with a laptop. But at the moment there are no warning lights at all so I guess I am fine for the time being. Thanks for the info!
