Hi, I'm Mike from 1A Auto. We've been selling auto parts for over 30 years.

Hi, everyone. Sue here at 1A Auto, and today we're going to show you how to install ignition coils on an '03 Volvo V70 with a 2.4 liter. If you need this part or any other part for your car, click on the link below and head on over to 1aauto.com.

Going to start by removing the engine cover. And that's a T30 on all these Torx bolts. And I've taken the liberty of removing all of them already, because that's just going to be tedious. So I'm just going to go around and take the rest of them out. And now this cover will come right up.

Take the oil fuel cap off. I'm going to replace that right away. Now, to take this cover off, there's two clips on the timing cover area. We'll pull back on those clips and push up. Now we have exposed all coils and cylinders in spark plug area.

So we're going to start with, as you can see, this is one, two, three, four, five cylinder, and all of them look identical. So I'll take one coil out and show you how to do one, and it stands for the rest. Each coil is held down with a bolt that has a 10 millimeter socket head on it. So I'm going to break that free. Take that right out. Now you can lift the coil up. Sometimes you might have to wiggle it back and forth. That's it. That's the ignition coil, and this is the tab. We're going to push down on this tab. See how it releases right there? You might have to take a small screwdriver. And we pull it out, and there's your coil.

So here we have the new coil from 1A Auto, and this is the factory coil for our '03 Volvo V70. Exact same design, same connector with the safety lines, same mounting, same seal for the actual rubber seal. These, the new ones, come pre-silicone. So if you need this part or any other part for your car, click on the link below and head on over to 1aauto.com.

We just place it over the cylinder. Find the spark plug head, and push it down on. These came pre-silicone. The ends have silicone on them. And I'm going to line up my connector before I bolt it down. That way I know it's straight on and it clicks. I'm going to take the mounting bolt. Start it by hand. I'm just going to tighten, snug that down. Perfect. Now you just follow the same procedure to do the other four cylinders.

Just line up the two tabs. You'll hear them snap down in. And then take that oil fuel cap off. See how it guides into those teeth? Slide it down. Now we have the eight bolts to put back. Just put them all in by hand. Take my T30 Torx bit, and I'm just going to tighten all the cover bolts down. Tighten down the last one. I'm just bottoming them out and just giving it a nice little tight.
