Oils
Genuine Volvo Penta oils are extensively tested and quality assured by Volvo Penta. They are formulated
to meet the specific requirements of Volvo Penta marine and industrial engines. Genuine Volvo Penta oils
include powerful additive technology which are individually selected to optimize performance, reduce fuel
consumption and extend the life of the engine.
• Effective oxidation resistance and thermal stability, even under severe conditions,
to prevent sludge and deposit build
• Excellent protection against corrosion by controlling the acids formed as the fuel burns
Note! Please always refer to the operator’s manual for information on the recommended oil quality, oil viscosity,
oil quantity and oil change interval for the specific product.

Coolants
Note! Volvo Penta provides two types of coolant: Volvo Penta coolant VCS (yellow) and Volvo Penta
coolant (green). They are formulated for the specific requirements of different engine generations and
contain unique additives that are not compatible. Therefore they should never be mixed. Always use the
same type of Volvo Penta coolant that originally came with the engine.
