[@hernen]

Hi. Thanks for the video. Do you have the parts number by any chance? I can't seem to find them anywhere

[@donmoore7785]

You stated in this video how easy it is to use the heel of your hand to install the seal in the oil pump off the car, but it was obvious later that you fought to get the seal onto the crank. The DIY person would have fits dealing with that. In the video you linked here you admitted that it is better to install the seal *after* the pump is installed, and having the right tool or something improvised is the way to go.

[@sirobb]

@@donmoore7785 What is your point?

[@sreviz]

Thanks again Sirobb!!!!! Thousands of people benefits from all of your videos on D5.

Please don't ever stop doing Volvo V70 D5 maintenance videos. I have just bough a V70 P2 Update D5 Auto with a Euro-3 engine (a unicorn, apparently) and your guidance in these videos is invaluable.

[@robertbielata8650]

Thanks for this video! Having this issue currently and have never encountered this problem until now. Couldn’t have done it without you! 🙏

[@chrisds302]

This fixed 90 percent of my leak, thank you! I later had to replace the vvt hubs and cam seals. Thank you sir ! Also folks clean that oil trap out and unclog your pcv valve !

[@andycanfixit]

Yep, all these seals end up failing due to a blocked PCV system. Upside is it's usually these seals that fail and not the rear main seal. I had to replace these and the cam seals, mine was mostly leaking from the cam seals but if you are going through the trouble to do them you might as well do these too while you are in there. Bought my 05 XC90 2.5T and the PCV system was so plugged I had to drop the oil pan to clean it all out.

[@chrisds302]

I started with replacing my cvvt hubs firstly because the exhaust hub had excessive play and was leaking but it continued to leak from crank, Just did this oil pump and crank repair and it has cured all my oil leak ! Thanks

[@sirobb]

Good work.

[@liamhollin8265]

Hello mate, thank you so so much for this video. I was panicking that the old car would need open heart surgery,and I would need open wallet surgery, but I'm relieved after watching this. Thank you again👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@soylentgreen2065]

simon, i enjoy these videos. they are detailed and have visuals i can actually see. good job and thank you for taking the time to make them

[@justinyoungstown]

Thank you for the video I am doing this job now at the shop. Pretty simple and straight forward. Be aware though for anyone who is diying this job. Pay close attention when you're using the harmonic balancer puller as it can and will knock the crank out of time with the mark on the pump. I happened to notice this and had to backup the crank back in time before finishing pulling the balancer. I also went a step further and marked the crankshaft with a paint market in a straight line down so when reinstalling its lined up properly 👍.

[@sirobb]

No need to mark the crankshaft as the pulley is keyed and refits in one position only. You just make sure the dedicated mark on the pulley lines up with the dedicated mark on the oil pump housing before fitting the belt and again after manually turning the engine.

[@justinyoungstown]

@@sirobb lol thank you, that made me super nervous. Rather be safe then sorry. Yes I used a big pair of pliers to line the pump up with the balancer/timing gear, knocked it out a few notches so good thing I double and triple check stuff 👍

[@sirobb]

Nothing wrong with being cautious so well done. Experience will teach you what is and isn't worth worrying about.

[@justinyoungstown]

@@sirobb I'm a flat rate tech at a 4 man shop over here in Youngstown ohio. I'm very cautious about what I do especially with timing. I ruined a f150 90k 5.4 motor because of a cam kicking out on me. Ruined all pistons and valves and had to get a scrap yard motor. So I figured it would be informative for someone attempting this job with no shop experience as I can see someone knocking the crank out of time remove the balancer and then ruining the motor because they didn't realize the crank turned from the original timing mark. Pain in the ass removing that oil pump 😂. Thank you for the video appreciate it.

[@Hix-Design]

Fair Play Si, appreciate the effort you go to, to make your vids. I never have the fortitude to start arsing around with camera shots of what I'm doing, nevermind breaking away from the task to explain.

[@PaneInTheGlass]

thanks for the video! I thought my crank seal was leaking but never had oil on my timing belt and after seeing this I'm almost positive its that oil pump o-ring. Thankfully this task doesn't seem horribly difficult

[@RandallFlaggNY]

You're the Man, Si. But I've found if you are DIY'er that it is easier just to buy the special tools. You are already saving so money by DIY'ing that you can spend some if it making your life easier. It also saves time on the removal/install. You can also then sell the part used if you don't need it again. Thanks for the great video!

[@BetoYT_53]

thank you very much! This video was of great importance and learning for me!

[@michaelvd2467]

Thanks for the video, going to have to do this soon since an oil leak is developing behind the crank pulley on my S60 :( Timing belt is due though, so I can tackle that job at the same time. I hope my cam seals are still OK though..

[@hajileserpud9539]

Fun fact... on seals and rubber bits I soak or spray with transmission fluid... It's a better rubber conditioner and protector than engine oil... usually once a month I get under my car and engine bay/ trans area and spray trans oil over all exposed rubber bits... make sure you let trans oil air dry before driving around, usually about 3 plus hours

[@liamoneill9793]

Very useful! I had a fuel filter start leaking when I changed it it was in horrible condition and oil started leaking from that side around the same time I'm assuming that this is what it is

[@yurimpala]

Thank for the video! It really helps me!

[@johno9507]

My S60R had a crankshaft oil leak when I bought it. It cleared itself up after a few hundred km's. Turns out the car was sitting around for months without being driven before I bought it.

[@YT.epicgamer]

Tip for anyone trying to get the seal on! Get a cap off of a small wd40 can, or like i used a cap off a CRC zinc spray can. Modifiy it so it goes over the crank and it has perfect circumference to get over the step, lube it up and it will be very easy to press on

[@sirobb]

[@MONSTERXC70]

If you don't have the "VOLVO SPECIAL TOOLS" install the gasket in the block like the video shows and install pump without the front seal and the pump will go on easier, bolt down and install outter seal. I'm in the process of doing one now and will make a video showing that way. I made 3 special volvo tools for $15 or less.

[@donmoore7785]

It seems to me that your way is better. Pressing the seal in with your hand may seem like a real time saver while the oil pump is out, but fighting that step like in the video cancels out any advantage. I would just buy the tool, or make something.

[@MrPaulNaidoo]

Hi there... great tutorial ...thank you!

[@malcolmyoung7866]

My LT35 SDI has the same engine as this (IIRC) and I will be doing this job very soon. Luckily for me, the engine in the van is longitudinal but I will have to remove the radiator and van front end...I will be looking to do the timing belt whilst in there...so maybe I'm doing the timing belt and the crank seal is secondary?? Thanks for sharing and your explanations are top notch....

[@sirobb]

Malcolm Young Thanks for the comment. Your engine isn't the same as the one in the video but I would imagine a similar seal arrangement will be present.

[@katetcologne]

Hi @SiRobb I have had a look at a V8 Xc90 with 130000 miles. There was a little oil smoke on the right side (looking from front at the engine), got less after 20 miles ride - nearly vanished but also slight whining noise and every few seconds like the engine aspirates. I made a video and could send. Would be great help to know if I should buy or not. All the best, Andre

[@sirobb]

I can't offer important advice based on remote evidence unfortunately. You have seen the car in person and still you're unsure so I would pay someone knowledgeable local to you to take a look.

[@Bigtime_mcalpine]

Love the video, bud. Thank you for taking the time to make it. Dumb question: do I need to drain oil before taking the oil pump out?

[@hohoho4788]

is it a common problem on P1 ? I find some oil leaking near oil pump,there is a white cover above right front axle

[@uberflutak]

Hi SiRobb. Haven't heard from you in ages. Hope you're OK and the Volvo is going strong.

[@JARODA9999]

Thanks for your video! I replaced the seals and gasket. When Idle no leaks, when accelerating, leaks a whole bunch (all 4-5 quarts in 30--40 miles) any ideas?

[@sirobb]

Is the leak around the pump?

[@MicrosoftPowerBoost]

Thanks for this video!!! I guess this cars toast the gaskets because of high temperatures. They run hotter because Turbochargers

The seal may have deformed when installing. There's a specific installation tool to use to prevent this. It's in my list of videos.

[@darylrobert3673]

maybe that seal is best installed after the install of the pump? i might do this next oil change..thank for video

[@CrackBerryAddict]

Did you install a new timing belt? I've read online that oil can contaminate the rubber belt and cause it to fail prematurely, but the independent Volvo shop I went to did not replace the timing belt when they changed the leaking front cam seal on my 2002 V70 XC.

[@jeffreylane2056]

Hi SiRobb, Great videos. I have an Australian 2008 Volvo XC90 D5 2.4 Diesel with around 170,000 Kms which we have owned since new. We currently have a heater that doesn’t work and with ambient temps getting down to -6, it’s not so good for the family. Wondering if you have any ideas re a likely cause. The techs have shown me the inside of the EGR ? Ducting and it has about a 4 or 5 mil black crud build up and a coked up internal valve of some sort which they think is asscociated with an internal oil leak. It doesn’t seem to use much oil but it only gets driven about 50 Kms per day. They have changed the thermostat, which while 10 years old and pretty filthy, showed no obvious issue. They have also replaced the water/ coolant pump with no improvement. Do you think they should take off the injector manifold and investigate for stuck valves etc. They have check the hoses in and out of the firewall for continuity and that seems fine with an external ( workshop ) supply but the engine itself doesn’t seem to be allowing hot coolant into the cabin area. We spent 2 years in a hot climate where the heater wasn’t used at all so wondering if something could be seized up somewhere. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated if you have encountered this sort of thing before or indeed if you have already covered the issue in a previous video. Thanks again. Cheers, Jeff [e-mail]

I'm wondering about this procedure, did it work and stop the oil leaks. My wife's 02 S60 seems to be doing on the same spot as yours and it looses medium amount of oil over a course of a week, engine still has oil but it leaves a mess and make my wife worry which in turn, she looks at me to fix.

[@sirobb]

It stopped the leak on the car in this video so it depends on whether the leak on your wife's car is caused by the same thing. Cleaning up the area first makes it much easier to spot where a leak is coming from.

[@eduardodiaz5762]

@@sirobb thanks for the reply, I can try cleaning around the area but I think that would be an accomplishment in itself. Thank you for the feedback, I will try some things first then I will consider doing it to her car.. it leaks off the passenger front side as well that why I suspect it.

[@willriley1619]

This might be kind of a stupid question but does the oil in the motor have to be drained before doing this?

Probably not if the car is tilted enough but I would drain it to be certain.

Does the oil need to be drained or is the pump higher than the sump level?

I was wondering this too. The pump is a decent amount above the sump, so it shouldn't need to be drained.

[@michaelna3119]

ok I have a 2001 V70XC cross country that is really pissing oil out, a stream running down right next to the crankshaft pulley on the front side(of vehicle) havent dug too deep as yet but was wondering if after removing the hamonic balancer and covers etc it is ok to start the engine and run it briefly to really pinpoint the leak, have plenty of oil in engine and thinking of at idle only

[@sirobb]

Starting the engine in that state would be a terrible idea.

[@michaelna3119]

@@sirobb before you replied to the above and i'd read it I went ahead and did just that, made sure all bits were clear and kept hands well back, no probs at all, the oil stream that was emerging around the crank area was from the inlet cam seal which surprised me as the inlet drive pulley was dry on the inside, having a bugger of a time locating that lower timing mark though

Hi, another great video. Quick question, I intend to remove the oil pump, replace the gasket and seals. Could I not just install the new crankshaft seal once the pumps back in, as if I’d never removed it? Rather than having to manufacture the sleeve type affair to try to get it to slip over? Many thanks.

[@sirobb]

Unfortunately, regardless of which order you do it in, at some point, the new seal will have to pass over the step on the crankshaft and that will require either the correct tool or some form of improvisation.

[@matthewshort4573]

Thanks for the speedy reply. Would a suitable long socket/tube with enough pressure applied be appropriate or would it need a more creative solution to press it in once the cooler had been reinstalled?

[@sirobb]

Anything of the same diameter to the wide part of the crankshaft is fine. Once past the ridge, the final pressing in of the seal by hand is straightforward.

[@sirobb]

It's a *very* close fit between the oil pump and housing and whilst you can lever the lugs a little bit, the pump must eventually come out straight. Levering on one point too much will skew and jam the pump against the housing. If all 4 bolts have been removed, there's nothing holding in the pump other than the close fit, the pump seal and maybe some grime.

Sell your D5 and buy a petrol version...

You should've used some of that carbon cleaner to degrease that area right around the crank gear.

Any one have problems with revs hunting and sometimes cutting out with this leak

[@jactemperley6422]

I have a leak from same area but it’s running rough when cars warmed up

@@jactemperley6422 My front crank seal just went and I did have revs hunting prior to the seal going but no cutting out.

Looks like that’s the left hand side. The right hand side is the gearbox.

Left right orientation is from the perspective of sitting in the driver's seat.

Hi Simon! So here is my question: I have a S60 D5 2002 163HP version with 409.000km. It runs fine, but it has a small “issue” when i floor it its pulls hard but, no matters what gear what RPM, its feels like a littlebit “shaky” it isnt halfshafts i checked them. Morely like he doesnt get enough fuel, or some turbo lag. (Fuel filter was changed 100km ago with oil and other filters.) Injectors are nearly brand new. Can it be caused by dirty Turbo Pressure sensor, or a “dirty” fuel pressure regulator or valve? Sorry for my bad english. Thanks!

Get an impact gun, or a breaker bar, not much room for the bar, you could try and heat it up first and spray penetrant oil while it's hot
