Much more important is fact you must use Mercedes-spec 299.51 oil. (229.5 is NOT the same) For all practical purposes this means using Mobil 1 5w-40 ESP Formula M that's pretty much only available at Mercedes dealers. ESP means emissions system protection and means formulated to protect the diesel particulate filter, i.e. low ash. You should find a sticker under the hood that cautions against adding any quantity of noncompliant oil.

Fill up every 10,000 miles for $300. The price will come down surely as more are sold. Maybe just buy a cow every 10,000 miles!  | |
