| Mobil 1 Fully Synthetic lubricants
I know that when I bought my current C class, it was delivered with Mobil 1 oil. I read somewhere in the car's literature pack, that Mercedes and Mobil had entered into a world wide supply agreement.
I must say that I was introduced to this particular product in the 80's and have run all my Mercs on it with what can only be descibed as very satisfying results.
Apart from having to have my G Wagen engine completely overhauled as a result of a burst heater valve, all my vehicles have run completely trouble free; I estimate some 500000Kms in total over the last 25 years.
I have also installed similar synthetic products from Mobil in my G Wagen gearbox and diffs.
I would ask of fellow members for their views/ comments.
I read somewhere in this forum that some USA members prefer an American alternative.

I think most people would agree that Mobil 1 is the best oil for the Mercedes-Benz gasoline engine. I have used Shell Rotella in my diesels and think it is a superior oil for diesel engines. |
