Volvo would like you to believe you need their o.e.m. and pricey anti-freeze to keep your cooling system from falling apart. NOT! Any good quality anti-freeze will perform well. Just be sure to mix it 50-50 with water when adding or changing, or using the 50-50 premix that's sold ready to use. More expensive because you're paying anti-freeze prices for water! I have used off-the-shelf anti-freeze in all my Volvos, which run 300,000 miles or more. You can extend the life of your radiator, water ump etc, but flushing the system every year or so, draining off the old coolant and adding a fresh mix.

What type of antifreeze can i use?

if you are just adding antifreeze to the cooling system you are safe to use a 50/50 mix that you can get at any auto part store. if you are adding antifreeze to the system after doing a repair ( empty system ) then you will want to get a full ( 100% ) strength antifreeze and add water to it to the correct water/antifreeze ratio depending on the air temp of the area of the world you live in.

Does a 2005 Volvo V70 2. 5 engine require a specific kind of antifreeze when replacing after a complete flush? Can you use over the counter antifreeze labeled "for all cars and trucks"?

Yes you can use any quality antifreeze, or you can use the long-life antifreeze from your dealership. It's your call. Over the counter antifreeze will not harm your vehicle iin any way. Hope this helps!
