This is the fluid for my 2001 Volvo S40 Turbo, synthetic, right? Thanks.

Yes it is and it works great. Changed mine about 5 months ago and no problems.

It worked fine for my 2005 Volvo V50 T5. Just to be on the safe side I called the 800 number on the bottle and spoke with Mobile Customer Service. If you have any doubts, I would suggest you contact them as the info they provided was as informative as it was reassuring.

http://www.ipdusa.com/products/4875/111541-mobil-3309-atf-automatic-transmission-fluid-quart. by checking at ipd I found a match for that fluid to your car. its very important that the fluid be an exact match, or failure can result. mobil 3309 is an exact spec match for Volvo atf.

My research suggested Mobil 3309 is an exact replacement for the expensive Volvo brand transmission fluid. I drained and filled the transmission on 2007 SX70 with no problem. Robert

This is a mineral oil based fluid-not synthetic. Ensure the owner's manual specifically asks for mineral transmission fluid.

From my understanding this brand of full synthetic is great for a slipper clutch. If you are unsure just do come online research but I personal feel my bike is running better since I added this oil.

I used this fluid for my 1998 Mercedes E320 4matic transfer case which uses the same type of fluid as the transmission. No problems with the transfer case. When I change the transmission fluid I will use this fluid. I searched many websites and found this fluid to be the only substitute to the Mercedes Brand or Febi Brand.

I ordered two, both came with motor oil, only one came with the cat pump oil. I buy the oil made for cat pumps in Home Depot $10 bottle.I have never used synthetic in a washer

If it matches the specs for your car then it works. Any additives added for a turbo would benefit your car as well. Most of the oils specifying they are ideal for turbos are nothing special.

It is best for you to follow manufacturer recommendations on this. However, if it is not break in oil, I do change oil every year before the snow flies. Be sure to sure to use the synthetic oil if you start with it stay with it. It is good stuff and lubricates the engine well.

I have a gas engine car , I am sure you will be more than satisfied going for castrol synthetic oil , just choose the right code for your car according with u technical book. Castrol never had problems , and never will ,

You shouldn't run anything but synthetic in your turbo model. 5w-40 is perfect. exactly what the dealer uses. you will gunk up the engine if you use conventional oil.

Yes, I think so. The full synthetic racing oil will give you more lubrication and protection, especially at extremes. I noticed in my 2011 Kawasaki Concours which was already extremely smooth and quiet, that after I switched to 4T that it seemed to shift even smoother. I would recommend.

I have used it for many years in a first generation Mazda Miata that has limited slip. So have many members of the Miata community, including those doing SCCA racing and also autocross. I believe that it is the most widely used gear oil, and I have never heard any dissatisfaction with it. I am sure there are other synthetics that are also good. -- John

yes; it can be used in motorcycle and scooter engines; drain existing oil, and remove oil filter first. refill will the synthetic and you're good to go!

Honestly, I don't know the answer. Personally, I wouldn't. It's red transmission lubricant that is about as thick as a strawberry malt. It's definitely not oil.

I know this synthetic is formulated for high torque Diesel engines, tractors, trucks and etc., and is a synthetic spin off of the long running 15-40 non synthetic by Shell. I have run this in gas V-8 engines year-round, and in my wife's gas SUV (6 cyl) but in warm weather. I recommend referring to your owners manual for recommended oil weight. Better yet, a quick call to a VW dealer or a local oil change shop would get you the answer.

As I have read from the manufacturer/distributor it is not synthetic. But in this world, "let the buyer beware". If you are concerned contact the manufacturer/distributor directly.

Hi, well I bought the Nissan Factory OEM CVT Transmission Fluid and it worth it.

If you've been using synthetic for the life of the car I would say that is okay but if you are looking to switch from long-term conventional use the switch may cause leaks as synthetic seems to clean areas out more. I know this from working as an oil tech and seeing countless people come in and want to switch to synthetic and come back with new leaks that didn't exist before
