Volvo Trucks will offer Volvo I-Shift transmission fluid, a fully synthetic SAE 75W-80 transmission lubricant, engineered specifically for the I-Shift automated manual transmission.

Depending on vehicle and application, I-Shift transmission fluid is approved for drain intervals up to 500,000 miles. I-Shift transmission fluid SAE 75W-80 is the preferred transmission fluid for the I-Shift, which is now standard on all Volvo-powered trucks built for the North American market.

I-Shift transmission fluid’s 75W-80 viscosity grade helps it maintain its fuel efficiency benefits through reduced viscous churn, smoother gear meshing, and easier pumping and filtering. The high viscosity index allows for outstanding low-temperature fluidity for quicker starts, easy shifts, and reduced wear during cold start-ups while providing strong lubricating films at higher temperatures.

Stable, optimized friction properties ensure smooth and rapid gear shifting, reducing stress on the driveline and tires, I-Shift transmission fluid SAE 75W-80 maintains effective viscosity and film strength for better wear protection under all operating conditions throughout the life of the transmission.

The transmission fluid offers outstanding thermal durability and oxidation resistance, which helps protect against deposit formation and contributes to long seal life and extended oil drain and service intervals.

I-Shift transmission fluid SAE 75W-80 is available in both five-gallon pails (VP0120548) and four one-gallon jugs (VPO120549). Visit www.volvo.com to learn more.
