Hi there - I'm about to have a C service on my W211 E500. I can buy the oil on my petrol card. But I don't have the service book with me.
Has anyone got the the details on
(a) how much I need to buy (8 litres?)
(b) what grade it should be? (all I recall is that it's synthetic)...
I hope soon to be taking delivery of my 2008 C280 V6 and was wondering whether there is any need / advantage to using premium unleaded rather than just basic unleaded petrol ?
I ran my BMW 523i for 11 years on the basic stuff with no apparent harm and would like to carry on that way, if...
its time to service my c43 but iam not sure what oil to use i know merc amg use 0w40 mobile 1 but i read in mercedes enthusiast mag that birds a garage in uxbridge say 15w50 mobile 1 is better for the engine any way whats best?
I'll need to do an oil and filter change in the next couple of weeks (my first on this car) and wondered what grade others use in theirs? Mine is a W210 E280 v6 with about 95k on the clock.

Asked my local mb dealer in sheffield what is the correct oil for my diff & he said they use75w/90 sythetic based oil.He couldnt sell me any as he said "we only have a large barrel in the workshop"! My car is a 2001 270 cdi.is it ok to use this grade of oil?
I thought there had been a post on this before, but I could not find it.
All this talk of running diesels on Vegetable oil, and a few friends whose performance cars are designed to run on Super Unleaded, have prompted this.
As I understand it:
Regular Unleaded = 95 RON
Super Unleaded = 97...
