1.7 hours to remove and replace, apparently. Compare that to a transmission or ICE engine job. The only difference is the footwells and centre tunnel hump. Otherwise, it looks pretty much standard. Cost of the pack is about $15,000US.
Good video. Honestly not any more complicated than working on a modern turbo charged car. Most of the work was done with a simple ratchet. However this is not a DIY project.
If this was designed right, everything should be accomplished from underneath. 1. Jack up vehicle 2.Remove waterproof shields 3. Remove electrical plugs and securing bolts 4. Lower battery. Done.
I hope my car never needs this. The chances of my local Volvo dealer putting this back together as well as the factory guys put it together seem pretty slim.
Haha yeah. One reason I'm sharing these videos is because this is EXACTLY what had to happen to my XC40 Pure Electric. I had a fault inside the main battery and they had to drop the whole unit out. Once I found these videos I thought I'd share them so others know what the process is.
I kindly recomend to take away these videos until Volvo Cars have reached out to you. You know they are not yours and this is Volvo Cars property and you are publishing them without their consent. In simple words it is stealing.
