In 2012, the Volvo XC60 comes with either a 3.0 L or a 3.2 L 6-cylinder engine that requires 5W-30 Synthetic Motor Oil. The vehicle has a capacity of 7.2 quarts with a filter, and the torque for the drain plug is 28 ft/lbs for both engine options. With 5W-30 oil, the 5 signifies its thickness during startup, the "w" stands for winter, and the 30 represents the oil's thickness at normal speeds. Oil is essential for keeping the engine clean and operational, but it should be changed every 3,000 to 5,000 miles along with the filter. The typical cost for an oil change ranges from $50 to $70 in labor expenses.
