Which one shall I use will be save at the end of the day?
According to the 2012 C63 owners manual, both were MB approved.

This is straight from the AMG Private Loung Forum written by AMG...
"Thank you very much for your post. This occurs as the automotive fluid standards have changed in the meantime (in May 2008)
AMG recommends the use of the following oils:
- Mobil 1 5W-40 for M156 engine (63er models)
- Mobil 1 0W-40 all other AMG engines (as well the AMG diesel engines that was used for the C 30 AMG)
- Mobil 1 5W-50 SLR engine
Before that change, the Mobil 1 0W-40 was used for the 63 models as well.
We hope that this information helps.
Best regards
AMG Private Lounge Team"

I just posted a thread about the hesitation/delay when starting the engine... Same exact issue and now that I think about it, probably was because I didnt have the foot on the brake hard enough..

This is what the 2014 C-Class Manual says:
According to this both 0W-40 and 5W-40 are approved, as long as they have the 229.5 approval from Mercedes.
