I doubt they'd write 50 if they meant 100.
In Response To: Ho often to change engine oil? ()
Volvo knows their own engine. OTOH, that number is probably very conservative.
I use an engine less than 50 hours per year and change the oil/filter before winter layup. If I used it more I'd probably change it less. In any case, I'd watch the color and change it if it appears darkened.
