what I used on my old car from after the warranty ended to 215,000 miles (the last oil change before buying a new car)? Shell Rotella T6 or Chevron Delo 400 LE 5w40, which ever was cheaper at WalMart (or in stock), combined with a FRAM filter (back when it was made in Germany), then later the genuine Mann filter.
OEM Volvo or Mann.
Mann oil filter, it's want they use in Europe (and what VW recommends)
Mann Oil Filter (@ 160,156) Liqui Moly 5w-40 Oil Change Kit (@ 160,156) Liqui Moly Ceratec Oil Additive (@ 160,156)
I was also running the over sized Mann filter with 5qts. I was originally running an APR tune @ 16psi with this setup and it seemed fine for the 8-9k miles i was using that tune.
Also, you should think about running Mann or Bosch oil filters....maybe Wix. On start-up, your oil pressure will routinely go beyond 100 psi and worse if your oil pressure relief valve in the pump is getting debris behind it and scoring the piston in the bottom of the pump.
Next oil change, use a mann, hangst, wix, bosch oil fliter and 20w50 oil.
I also use Moble 1 0w-40 and a Mann filter.
Oil and filter changed at 105k. Purchased at NAPA Auto Parts in Newport News for $51
Spring is commin so i made service of my "R" oil Millers XF 5W40 + with oil filter Mann'a new oil filter cover - old one broke during disassembing
