2016 Volvo S60 Check Engine Light Codes

The most common check engine codes for the 2016 Volvo S60 in our Park Place Volvo service lane in TX relate to oxygen sensors, catalytic efficiency, ignition misfires, and turbocharger-related boost control faults. An unresolved oxygen sensor (P013x series) can reduce fuel economy and damage the catalytic converter, leading to high repair costs. A failing catalytic converter (P0420) will degrade emissions performance and can lead to costly replacement if untreated. Misfire codes (P030x) risk engine damage and poor drivability; these often stem from ignition coils, spark plugs, or fuel delivery issues. Turbocharger control faults can affect power delivery on the T6 Polestar-powered S60 — addressing boost and intake leaks promptly avoids more expensive turbo or engine repairs. At Park Place Volvo, our technicians use Volvo-specific scanners to read codes, test related systems, and present clear repair options. Fixing issues early provides immediate savings in fuel and performance and long-term protection against cascading failures. We combine genuine Volvo parts, factory calibration, and regular service promotions; consult our service specials and schedule service to get prioritized support and accurate estimates.
