Synthetic or Conventional is your choice.
If you have no major engine oil leaks and the engine is in good condition then consider using a Quality Syntheticl
If the engine leaks oil then have it fixed first.
Till then I would recommend using Castrol GTX 5W-30.

The Volvo V40 uses (among others) the 1.8 Mitsubishi GDI engine. GDI = Gasoline Direct Injection.
All you have to do is check on the dip stick and you will find the code for the correct oil.
The icons on the dashboard of a Mitsubishi Pajero GDI usually referred to a possible problem. The engine icon means there is a problem with the engine.

Where is the o2 sensor on a Mitsubishi pejero 1999, V6 GDI V75W
engine oil type is fully synthetic 5w /40 or genuine spec from Mitsubishi is called, 'Performance GDI' this oil will run cleaner and reduce carbon deposit development to the intake system. any more questions please ask away. Dave ( mitsiboyblue@hotmail.co.UK)
Advantages of a GDI engine (a direct injection engine) include reduced fuel consumption, and performance boost.
