0w-40 ok??? S60 2001

posted by  someone claiming to be Rene on  Tue May 28 06:52 CST 2002 [RELATED]

Guys,

I like to know your opinions about using Mobil1 0W-40 instead of the Mobil1 10W-30 I am actually using on my Volvo. Other than being 100% synthetic, it is the grade recommended on my other car.

S60 2.4M, 13K miles, Weather: Florida, 90% HW.

BTW, $5.85/qt!!!!!!!!!, I rather use Amsoil if 0W-40 grade if available......

See:

Thanks,

Rene

Mobil 0W-40 would work. AMSOIL does make a 0W-40, but it is not labelled as an extended drain oil (oil analyis would probably show it is).
You'd get a bit better performance, and more than adequate protection with a 0W-30.
