Hi guys , well i have some hard time finding the correct oil for my 2003 c320 ,some websites says that i should use 10W30 because it has almos 94,000 miles and a ticker oil is better for high millage engines , the guy at my local mercedes says that i shoud use 0w30 and the manager of dealership says 5w30 , right now im running 5w30 Mobil 1 oil on it , but i would like to know with shoud i use and witch brand ?

thanks guys

The correct answer would be "the approved oil for this engine".

Dealer just handed me 5w40 and told me it is the ONLY thing MBUSA is stocking, it meets 229.5 and that is "what I use now, not 0w40" - any input on this Glyn?
