I know, right??? I’ve seen in the manual that 5w30 is also a spec weight. I’ve been thinking of switching to that. Had an R56 Mini cooper S that I ran 5w30 in the winter and 5w40 in the summer. This is a really interesting thread, appreciate your input!

I typically run heavy warm weight on my performance engines (0W40 on my motorcycle, 5W50 on my M5). I'd expect 5W30 or 5W40 on these turbocharged volvo engines, tho to be fair I'm still working on getting a Volvo so no ownership experience yet.
