Hi,
My 98 V70R AWD is dripping engine oil onto the driveway. The oil seems to come from a bad crimp on the oil cooling inlet line, which goes into the bottom of the radiator. The part# is 3528201 and the best price I found was $96.50 from Borton Volvo.
It looks like something I can replace myself, but wanted to check in with the experts before I screw up and have to ride my bike to work.
I noticed that on the engine side, both the inlet and outlet line are attached by a common bracket and bolt. Access to this bolt is a bit restricted, as it sits right above the frame. Also I am not sure if I can get the defective inlet end off without disturbing the outlet end (again on the engine side).
I would be grateful for any advice or word of caution.
Thanks.
