Volvo VDS-3 15W-40 Engine Oil – 5 Litres

Volvo VDS-3 15W-40 Engine Oil is a heavy-duty engine lubricant developed for compatible diesel engines requiring SAE 15W-40 oil meeting the Volvo VDS-3 specification.

Designed for demanding commercial and heavy-duty applications, it helps provide reliable lubrication, wear protection and engine cleanliness across varying operating conditions.

This 5-litre container is suitable for servicing or topping up compatible Volvo trucks, buses, commercial vehicles and other engines where VDS-3 15W-40 is specifically required.

For correct application, always match the oil specification to the vehicle or equipment manufacturer's service requirements.

Product Specifications

Suitable Applications

This oil is intended for engines where the manufacturer specifies Volvo VDS-3 and SAE 15W-40.

Potential applications can include compatible:

Volvo Trucks • Volvo Buses • Commercial Vehicles • Heavy-Duty Diesel Engines • Construction Equipment • Industrial Diesel Applications

Compatibility must be determined by the required oil specification, not simply by the Volvo brand name.

Important: Newer Volvo engines may require later oil specifications. Do not use VDS-3 solely because the vehicle is a Volvo. Always check the owner's manual, service documentation or engine requirements before ordering.

Why Choose the Correct VDS Specification?

Heavy-Duty Engine Protection

Heavy-duty diesel engines operate under demanding temperatures and loads. Using an oil with the correct specification helps maintain lubrication and protect critical engine components.

SAE 15W-40

The 15W-40 viscosity grade provides multigrade performance for compatible engines designed to operate with this viscosity.

Volvo VDS-3

VDS stands for Volvo Drain Specification. Engines specifying VDS-3 should be serviced with an oil meeting the appropriate requirement and recommended viscosity.

Customer FAQs

What viscosity is this engine oil?
It is SAE 15W-40.

What Volvo specification does it meet?
The container is labelled VDS-3.

How much oil is included?
This listing is for one 5-litre container.

What is the product number?
The label shows 22582293.

Is this for petrol or diesel engines?
This product is primarily positioned for compatible heavy-duty diesel engine applications requiring VDS-3 15W-40.

Can I use this in my Volvo truck?
Only if your truck/engine specifies VDS-3 15W-40 or explicitly permits this specification. Send us the vehicle/engine details if you need assistance checking compatibility.

Can I use it in newer Volvo trucks?
Do not assume so. Newer engines can require newer Volvo oil specifications and different viscosity grades. Check the manufacturer's service requirements first.

Can I mix it with another 15W-40 oil?
Matching viscosity alone does not guarantee that two oils meet the same performance requirements. For servicing, use the specification recommended by the engine manufacturer.

Is 5 litres enough for a complete oil change?
Many heavy-duty engines require substantially more than 5 litres. The correct capacity depends on the engine. This 5L pack may therefore be used as part of a multi-container service quantity or for top-up.
