Mobil One 5w-30 ESP https://www.m1oils.com.au/product/mobil-1-5w-30-esp/ approved for VW504/507, MB229.51 and meets C3


Did you consider M1 ESP 0W30? It has all the legit manufacturer certifications you have listed.


Not available in Australia. Mobil oils don't have big exposure in the Australian retail space. https://www.m1oils.com.au/products/mobil1/

There is a grey importer for this (along with a good range of other oils).

Welcome!

I’ve owned many Volvo’s with the I-5 engine. Any oil that meets A3/B4 spec will serve you well.

Hey Luke - I'm also in Aus and stumbled on your thread. Trying to buy one of these.
Thoughts on overall reliability?
