Engine Oil - Volvo XC90 Owner's Manual

Engine oil

Adverse driving conditions
Check the oil level more frequently for long
journeys:
• towing a caravan or trailer.
• in mountainous regions.
• at high speeds.
• in temperatures colder than -30 °C or
hotter than +40 °C.
• shorter driving distances (shorter than
10 km) at low temperatures (under 5 °C).
This may result in abnormally high oil temper-
ature or oil consumption.
Choose a fully synthetic engine oil for
adverse driving conditions. It provides extra
protection for the engine.
Volvo recommends
