Hi everyone. I am new to the fórum and would appreciate some advice. I own a Volvo v40 d2 hatchback 2013 with 190000km now (diesel) I felt that my petrol consumption increased since it turned around 175000 so I asked my mechanic to change the oil, the oil filter and the air filter. After this revision, consumption turned even worse. I live in an island where I need to use 2nd gear sometimes for a long time due to the hills. When I’m using 2nd guear, my average consumption according to the board panel is around 26km/l. It’s a lot. It has never been like this. When on the motorway, flat surface, using 4 and 5th guear the average consumption is 7km/l. Sorry for my bad English. What could this be? And why my oil change and filters made it worse?
Below is the oil they used ACEA A5/B5 compatible but not Volvo recommended.
Best wishes from Portugal
