Adverse driving conditions for
engine oil
Adverse driving conditions can lead to abnor-
mally high oil temperature or oil consump-
tion. Below are some examples of adverse
driving conditions.
In order to fulfil the requirements for the
engine's service intervals all engines are
filled with a specially adapted synthetic
engine oil at the factory. The choice of oil
has been made very carefully with regard
to service life, starting characteristics, fuel
consumption and environmental impact.
Check the oil level more frequently for long
journeys:
towing a caravan or trailer
in mountainous regions
at high speeds

An approved engine oil must be used in
order that the recommended service inter-
vals can be applied. Only use a prescribed
grade of oil for both filling and oil change,
otherwise there is a risk of the service life,
starting characteristics, fuel consumption
and environmental impact of the car being
affected.
in temperatures colder than -30 °C
(-22 °F) or hotter than +40 °C (+104 °F).
The above also apply to shorter driving dis-
tances at low temperatures.
Choose a fully synthetic engine oil for adverse
driving conditions. It provides extra protection
for the engine.
If engine oil of the prescribed grade and
viscosity is not used, engine related com-
ponents may become damaged. Volvo dis-
claims any liability for any such damage.
Volvo recommends:
Volvo recommends that oil changes are
carried out at an authorised Volvo work-
shop.

Coolant – specifications
Transmission fluid – specifications
Brake fluid – specifications
Prescribed grade: Ready-mixed coolant
approved by Volvo. If concentrated coolant is
used, mix with 50% water (of approved
water quality, not salt water, etc.). Consult a
Volvo dealer if unsure.
Only coolant approved by Volvo should be
used in order to prevent impairment of the
cooling system, engine problems, etc.
Under normal driving conditions, the trans-
mission fluid does not need to be changed
during the service life of the gearbox. How-
ever, it may be necessary in adverse driving
conditions.
Brake fluid is the medium in a hydraulic brake
system that is used to transfer pressure from
e.g. a brake pedal via a master brake cylinder,
which in turn acts on the brake callipers.
Prescribed grade: Volvo Original or equiva-
lent fluid compliant with a combination of
Dot 4, 5.1 and ISO 4925 class 6.

WARNING
It is recommended that brake fluid is
changed or filled by an authorised Volvo
workshop.
