Joseph answered 9 years ago hi, i'm guessing from the -50 and 40's that this engine is a diesel or has something in it that requires it. But i would recomend (because it's OHC or DOHC) a 15w-50 mineral oil for summer, and 10w-40 mineral oil for winter and then add in a bottle of ZDP additives because the API is limiting the concentrations of certain lubricating minerals such as ZDP.

It's what's in comercial diesel oils cuz synthetic would be too expensive in order to make it last as well. Smoidless answered 2 months ago Wow! What a lot people really don’t understand much about engine oils. Even the MB mechanics don’t seem to know what’s right oil to use?

I have a 1996 C280 and 2006 E500. I live in an area that can get to -10 degrees to well over 100 degrees Fahrenheit. Mercedes specifics oils that meet Mercedes oil specification 229.5. This usually shows Mobil 1 5w40 or similar oil that meets their 229.5 requirement. With that said, 5w40 full synthetic Mobil 1 is good for just about any Mercedes Benz gasoline engine. BUT, since I’m an engineer, and my best friend is a jet engine engineer who rebuilds Porsche racing engines, with both agree that MB is basically in bed with the Mobil oil company and their specifications are a crock of shit.

First of all, most synthetic oils ARE NOT full synthetics. They are a mix which WILL start to break down under load and heat.

Another problem is lack of proper amounts of zinc or ZDDP in most popular oil brands. If you want the good stuff, your going to need to buy something like Royal Purple, Valvoline full synthetic racing oil or Amsoil and stick with something like 10w40 or even 20w50.

5w40 is just too thin to cushion bearing and tappits.
