Signs Your Volvo Model Needs an Oil Change

If you skip a Volvo oil change service and continue driving, your vehicle will begin to let you know. In the short term, these symptoms may not cause too much alarm. However, left untreated, these signs may cause long-term damage. Consider scheduling your Volvo oil change service if you notice these symptoms:

• Poor fuel economy
• Rough idling or struggling acceleration
• The maintenance indicator light goes on
• Dark, dirty, and grimy engine oil

If any of this is familiar, roll into our Volvo service center. We can evaluate your vehicle with our advanced diagnostic tools to pinpoint the exact issue, conduct a Volvo oil change with the exact Volvo oil type your model needs, and hand the key fob over when the model is operating just as it should.

Plus, our dealership may be able to use any warranty or complimentary maintenance coverage for your care. Ask the expert advisors at our authorized Volvo dealer.

Schedule service with our team to get your vehicle's needs met and a precise cost estimate of services rendered.

Volvo Oil Change Service Intervals

Most Volvo vehicles typically need oil changes once every 7,500 to 10,000 miles. This is a little longer than many other vehicles from competitor brands since gas-reliant Volvo models are all either mild-hybrid or plug-in hybrids. Volvo Cars also sells all-electric models, but those vehicles won't need oil changes at all.

Your Volvo vehicle will typically hit its oil change milestone once every six months to a year, depending on your driving frequency. Most newer models will have a maintenance indicator on the dashboard that will let you know when these milestones are upon you.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does it take to change the oil on a Volvo vehicle?

The time for a Volvo oil change can vary depending on the model, but it usually won't take more than an hour once the work begins. Different oil pan drain configurations, oil capacities, and more can impact how long it takes to change the oil on a Volvo vehicle. However, our service center prioritizes your convenience and will strive to complete your Volvo oil change quickly.

What type of oil do Volvo cars use?

The type of oil used in Volvo cars varies by Volvo model and engine option. The oil viscosity and other factors will vary, but our recommendation will always be to use synthetic oil, since the manufacturer recommends it on all modern Volvo vehicles. This oil lasts longer and works better than conventional oil, making its higher price a worthy trade off.

Does a Volvo vehicle need a special oil change?

No, a Volvo oil change is not that much different from an oil change on any other luxury car. The process is functionally the same, but some things can vary. For example, modern Volvo vehicles have an oil life monitor, which must be reset after the oil change. Our certified technicians will handle this with precision and a focus on your convenience.
