Can anyone confirm the exact OEM fluid type, grade used and quantity in the XC90 transmission and differential(conventional or synthetic and what viscosity). I will be swapping the oil for synthetic LUCAS products.

Thanks.

Re: Changing transmission and differential oil (marcvip99)

...the 3309 Mobil 1 ATF fluid is the way to go for a transmission fluid flush ...don't let the dealer charge you $20/qt instead of $4/qt for the same oil.

Re: Changing transmission and differential oil (hjself)

Replacing the transmission fluid is fully supported by Volvo and the tranny is not sealed. They do however only recommend using their fluid which I refused to since it is the same relabeled fluid as the Mobil 1 3309 ATF.

does the xc90 awd 5cyl have a front and rear differential plus a transmission required for oil changes or is the tranny shared by a diff? I am looking to change the differential fluid and need the oil type and viscosity rating, quantity etc
