V70: Engine - Westway Lubricants

Ovlovppz · Oct 30th, 2020, 11:56

Has anybody used Westway Lubricants?
In particular, 0w30 synthetic A5 B5?
eBay item 114020153056
🤔🤔

Yes:~
I Use them for gearbox- back axle- steering for a '97 V70- '88 240 to include the specialized auto box oil for the V70 (20L)
& engine oil plus other for a Ford Fiesta.

I would have no hesitation in using them for engine oils on the Volvo- just that I can get a descent grade & price locally.

Just placed an order for 2x 80/90 back axle oil for the 240- placed Wednesday just before 12 and it arrived early the next morning-- service and quality has always been spot on with very competitive prices.
Recommended.
Bob.

Thank you Bob 👍

Mirror Bob's comments. I use their AW-1 ATF fluid and have used the 0W30 in the past. All very good.

I use the Exol now just because I wanted a single source.

I think all of these independents (Smith Allan, Westway, Exol etc.) offer excellent products.

Thank you Zapcity1 👍

Yes again:~
Smith & Allan are a very similar company to Westway and worth considering.
Good luck,
Bob.

Much cheaper than Castrol (What Volvo recommend), that's for sure.
