Volvo XC60 spark plugs are generally replaced every 60,000 kilometers. Under normal maintenance conditions, car spark plugs should be replaced after driving 40,000 to 60,000 kilometers. However, this may vary depending on the brand and engine. It is recommended to follow the user manual for guidance. The following standards can be referenced for maintenance and replacement: platinum spark plugs should be replaced at 40,000 kilometers, ordinary nickel alloy spark plugs at 20,000 kilometers, and iridium spark plugs at 60,000 to 80,000 kilometers. Steps for replacing spark plugs: Open the hood, lift the plastic cover of the engine, and remove the high-voltage ignition wires. Mark each cylinder's position to avoid confusion. Use a spark plug socket to remove the spark plugs one by one. While removing them, check for any external debris such as leaves or dust and ensure they are thoroughly cleaned. Place the new spark plugs into the spark plug holes, hand-tighten them a few turns, and then use the socket to tighten them further. Reinstall the removed high-voltage ignition wires in the firing order and secure the cover plate.

I'm an experienced driver of an XC60, and it's recommended to replace the spark plugs of this car at around 100,000 kilometers. If your daily driving habits are aggressive or you frequently take short trips, the spark plugs may wear out prematurely, leading to poor ignition, engine shaking, or increased fuel consumption. I've inspected many cars, and it's best to check the condition of the spark plugs every 80,000 to 100,000 kilometers. Once severe carbon buildup or enlarged gaps are found, they should be replaced immediately. Delaying replacement can degrade engine performance and even cause other faults, making it unwise to spend more on repairs later. During routine maintenance, the technician will remind you, and following the user manual is the most reliable approach. Developing a habit of regular maintenance can extend your car's lifespan and give you peace of mind while driving.

Why is there abnormal noise when driving?

Driving with abnormal noise can be caused by the following reasons: 1. The engine temperature is too low. When the car is cold-started, the engine temperature is too low for it to work properly, which is a normal phenomenon. Just wait a while until the engine temperature rises to a normal level. 2. The car's three-way catalytic converter expands due to heat. If there is abnormal noise when the car is just started, but it disappears after a while, it is caused by the expansion of the three-way catalytic converter due to heat, which is also a normal phenomenon and does not need attention. 3. Transmission failure. The internal gears of the transmission rub against each other, causing abnormal noise. This situation is more complicated and requires professionals at a repair shop or 4S store to inspect it. 4. Wear of the engine belt or chain. Wear of the engine belt or chain causes friction when the vehicle is started or idling, resulting in abnormal noise. For safety reasons, it is recommended to directly replace the engine belt or chain.
