Default What high beam would you suggest ?

Hi,

I have a Volvo s80 2004 and currently, my lights have 66250clc OSRAM bulbs. I would like to upgrade my high beams to match (roughly) color with OSRAM bulbs. What kind of high beam bulbs would you suggest, Osram night breakers?

I also didn't want to create another thread. How many liters of engine oil and brake oil is for this car?

Pick your car from the above list. The answer to your questions will be there. Nightbreakers should be ok.

FYI: You need to provide several details about your car when you ask about capacities. Diesel or petrol?, new diesel or older?

A litre of brake fluid is usually all that's required to do maintenance.

I am sorry forgot to add that.

Volvo s80 , 2004, D5

I bought - OSRAM Night Breaker Laser H7, I really thought that they will be similar/same color as my current xenon (6000k white), but unfortunately they are yellow. Oh well, hope for better view anyway.

Since they don't let us play with diesel Volvos here I have to guess.
My guess is 6.1 quarts, just like the petrol models.
With the "fire breathing exhaust systems" (I forget the real name) which I believe you don't have since yours is an '04, it was lowered to 5.6 to allow room for a common malfunction whereby fuel is sprayed into the exhaust system but not ignited. This fuel finds its way into the crankcase and raises the level.
Sounds lovely.

Did your vehicle come with an owner's manual?
