2005 S80 2.5T - Oil Recommendation?

Post by gvsu4msu »

Hello all,

New to the Volvo scene as I just picked up a 2005 S80 2.5t on July 3rd, 2014.

It appears to be time for an oil change, and I am looking for some advice on which oil to use.

I have read about Mobil1 Synthetic as the oil of choice for Volvos, but see there are various "levels".

Can anyone provide a recommendation of what "level" I should go with for my S80 with 164K?

Or is there a different oil I should be considering all together?

I live in the US (Michigan) if that matters any.

I have the Filter and wrench from IPDUSA, so now need the last piece of the puzzle.

Thanks for your time in this matter.
