Your 2008 XC90’s oil should be changed according to Volvo’s recommended oil change intervals. Check the interval for your vehicle mileage in the table above.

2008 Volvo XC90 Oil Change Q&A

  • Why check the motor oil level in my Volvo XC90? Engine oil lubricates moving parts in your engine. If you're low or out of oil, these components can grind against each other, generate too much heat, and cause your XC90’s engine to fail. That’s why you should check your oil and get it changed regularly.
  • How hard is it to change Volvo XC90 oil at home? Changing engine oil at home isn’t as simple as it’s made out to be. You’ll have to buy special tools and figure out a way to recycle the old oil properly. Getting a professional oil change reduces the risk of something going wrong during the service, but also help your car perform down the road.
  • Why is my Volvo XC90 spewing blue or gray exhaust smoke? Your engine could be burning oil due to a leak. It may be time for a pro to take a look. A leak can be caused by a variety of issues including faulty valve seals, damaged piston rings, or damaged cylinder walls.

  • What can cause the oil light on my Volvo XC90 to illuminate? Your Volvo XC90 oil change reminder light may come on if you're overdue for an oil change.

  • Do I need to change my XC90's oil filter when I get an oil change? It’s highly advised you replace the oil filter in your Volvo XC90 every time you change the oil.
