    1/2" Impact Wrench Recommendations

    Have been looking for decent but not too expensive impact wrench. I do like the Snap On CTU-6850 but a bit rich for me new, just missed one on ebay but new seller with no feedback so probably a good thing. Anyone have one for sale or recommend a decent cordless one?

    Oil recommendations for CLS 55

    Is there any particular oil which is preferred in this engine? I know it's fully synthetic, unsure if it's 5/40 or 0/40. Also which brand? I have always used Mobil 1 in the past (BMWs) and Castrol edge (Audi), not entirely sure what to use in the 55. Advice appreciated, as always!
