Summary
Service Campaign S29650: Engine Oil Specification Upgrade Volvo Car USA LLC and Volvo Car Canada Limited (Volvo) on behalf of Volvo Car Corporation, has decided to launch Service Campaign S29650 for model year 2012 S60 vehicles with engine code 62. Volvo has identified that upgrading the oil specification to ACEA A5/B5 Full Synthetic will help reduce carbon build up in the engine, and better align with the oil specification used in newer VolvoÂ’s. The corrective action is to install an engine oil specification decal in the engine compartment, and update the Owners and Warranty Manuals. Please also communicate the updated engine oil specification change to the vehicle owner. Fit the label in the engine compartment according to the attached instruction.
