Volvo Coolant Filter shut off valve


RHeller1

Recommended Posts

working on my 2011 Volvo with a D11 engine.  I want to replace the coolant filter but the shut off valve is different than any I have seen and dont know what is off and what is on.  Most I have seen use a roll pin on a shaft that you turn.   Mine has a large nut with an allen head bolt in middle.  Any insight on this valve?

Almost looks as though someone broke the original valve and replaced it with whatever was laying in the bottom of their tool box.

Agreed. That looks like the valve was gutted, and a pipe plug installed in place of the working parts. Time to replace it. I'm assuming the heater hose comes off in an area hidden in the pic.

I have been wrong before, I'll probably be wrong again.
