Which engine oil
Going to change the oil in my 2.4 D5 again. (Trying to achieve 2 a year)
Last time I got a full Volvo service kit but don't need to change everything this time. Euros have a 50% off at the mo so can get trippleX 0w-30 fully synthetic (6ltrs) for £37. Would that be ok or is it worth spending the extra £20+ for Volvo oil? |

0W30 is good. Fully syn is Volvo recommended. What is the ACEA rating? E3 motors were A3/B4 but I think E4 went A5/B5 or something like that.
