    I've since changed the oil in my 2010 two more times and while it goes faster, it's still pretty difficult. Gloves help. I still can't get the oil filter top out even if I unclip the power steering...

    You have to drill 4 holes in the top of the hatch. It's made of plastic or fiberglass, so they're easy to drill. Where you drill is clearly marked on the underside of the hatch. The spoiler has...

    Today I successfully changed the oil in my 2010 XC70 3.2L - not without some difficulty. Took me about 45 minutes, but I did practice on my lemon 2009 before I gave it back. Procedure with...
