It is hard to find some of these very high spec oils, but will get easier as demand increases. There was a time when multigrade was a very big deal.
Perhaps its an idea to at least keep a note of the oil spec in the car - eg
0w20 C3 A5 B5 volvo xyz123
sometimes when Im in a long queue at a petrol station I'll browse the overpriced oils on sale, often thay have the common ones but nothing suitable for VW PD, hardly a rare engine. Perhaps we shoud all kep a small bottle in a cubby hole, or at least cheack our oil levels occasionally.
