The 2012 Volvo XC60 has either a 3.0 L 6-cylinder or a 3.2 L 6-cylinder engine that needS5W-30 Synthetic Motor Oil. The capacity for the vehicle iS7.2 quarts with a filter and the torque for the drain plug is 28 ft/lbs for both versions. 5W-30 means that 5 is the thickness or the viscosity of the oil at startup, w is for winter and 30 is the thickness or the viscosity at operating speeds. Oil is what is used to keep the engine clean and running. It doesn't last forever though so the oil and the filter needs to be changed every 3,000 to 5,000 miles or so. The cost to change the oil is anywhere from $50 to $70 in labor costs.
