I had a split in the coolant hose that goes to the turbo. It sits down behind the engine and next to the firewall. It was very expensive to replace the hose and labor intensive because of how difficult it was to get to it..
Either green coolant or red ECL (extended life coolant), depending on year and make and model of engine.
Volvo says "Volvo coolant"....I say pentosin pentofrost nf. It's the blue stuff. Not lifetime coolant, but can safely be kept in the system for a couple of years.
it is located on top of the bell housing behind the engine
On the passenger side of the engine compartment there is a surge tank remove that and the sensor is in the bottom. It will be the clear plastic tank where you add Coolant.

MID 128 PID 111 has to do with the engine coolant level in the Volvo. It is a code that can be gotten when the check engine light is flashing.
that is the heater core that is leaking which is located behind the radio.
The fuse box is not in the engine compartment. Check below the radio, behind the garbage container.

There is Volvo branded coolant that you can buy from the dealership. But that is only branded from another manufacturer. This coolant is orange/yellow. Some say to stay away from green coolant for Volvo's. Others have had good experience with them. But the most important thing is to NOT mix orange AND green coolant. Also mix with distilled water if not already pre-mixed 50/50.
