My choice, based on the detailed research, is Petronas Syntium 7000dm 0w30. It has all the main characteristics that D3 engine requieres to run smooth and last long.

can consider a parf volvo with 2-3 years left, i bought a nearly 9 years old 2016 volvo s60 t5, drove 45k km in 10 months, drove to krabi thailand, total spent $2000+ on maintenance for the 45k km i used (mostly wear and tear stuff, things like brake pads, tyres, wipers that jap cars also have to change). honestly damn good car for the price i paid (10.8k depre). 241hp stock, pretty reliable for a conti, and super quiet and comfortable.
Pros: super quiet and comfortable
Cons: wear and tear stuff
Vehicle:
Volvo S60
Mileage: 45000 km
I put brembo pads and discs last time and I got about 4 years out of them before gave up (I'm pretty hard on them).
Pros: lasted about 4 years
Cons: gave up after 4 years

I had the same problem with my 2024 XC90 and only driven it 3k miles in one year. The dealer replaced the brakes under warranty and the new pads are better. Honestly I think the brakes on such a heavy SUV underperform. Don’t believe the dealer, they said the same to me. Then I held my ground and said that this is a safety issue and not normal!
Pros: new pads are better
Cons: brakes underperform

Just had new brakes put on my Volvo XC90 a few weeks ago (400 miles ago). They make a loud low pitch squeak when braking lightly. It’s terrible. These were installed by my Volvo dealer. Dealer says that’s just how it is. But I can’t imagine someone buying a new car with new brakes and having to deal with the same thing. Response from the dealer was “that’s just how it is”. Same response I got when I raised concerns about the cabin noise and weak AC.
Cons: loud low pitch squeak, terrible performance
