pg.114 Engine oil
Oil quality
Meeting minimum ILSAC specification GF-2, including ACEA A1, API SJ, SJ/CF and SJ/Energy
Conserving.
Depending on your driving habits, premium or synthetic oils may provide superior fuel economy and
engine protection. Consult your Volvo retailer for recommendations on premium or synthetic oils. Oil
additives must not be used unless advised by an authorized Volvo retailer.
Volvo recommends use of oil with a quality rating equal to or higher than ILSAC GF-2. Equivalent and
better oils include ACEA A1, API SJ, SJ/CF, and SJ/Energy conserving. Lower quality oils may not
offer the same fuel economy, engine performance, or engine protection.
Oil iscosity (stable ambient temperatures)
Operation in temperate climates
Incorrect viscosity oil can shorten engine life. Under normal use when temperatures do not exceed 86 ¡F,
SAE 5W/30 will provide good fuel economy and engine protection. See the viscosity chart at right.
Operation in hot climates
When temperatures exceed 86 ¡F in your area, Volvo recommends, for the protection of your engine,
that you use a heavier weight oil, such as SAE 10W/30. See the viscosity chart at right.
Extreme engine operation
Synthetic oils meeting SAE 10W/30 and complying with oil quality requirements are recommended for
driving in areas of sustained temperature extremes (hot or cold), when towing a trailer over long
distances, and for prolonged driving in mountainous areas.
Changing oil and oil filter
Oil and oil filter changes should be made at 7,500 mile (12,000 km) intervals.
Extra oil additives must not be used unless advised by an authorized Volvo retailer. Synthetic oil is
not used when the oil is changed at the normal maintenance service intervals.
