Changing oil viscosity question

Post by Danilosilni »

I bought my XC90 used and the previous owner used Mobil1 10W30 so for the time being I did the same. Since Volvo recommends 5W30 and also recommends only topping up with whatever oil is currently in your car, is it safe to simply switch to 5W30 when I change my oil next? I'm assuming it's ok, but just making sure. Thanks.
