2012 C63 AMG
Pretty good price for the recommended oil for our 6.3 engines.
LINK
Found this in the comments for this product on Amazon.com:
This is directly from AMG.
This occurs as the automotive fluid standards have changed in the meantime (in May 2008).
In general, the following fluids should be used for AMG engines :
- 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.
Best regards,
AMG Private Lounge Team

Before you go advertising oil you should probably be sure that its 229.5 spec as per our engine spec, I believe that oil your referring to is 229.51 spec, if on the back of the bottle. If that's the case it's diesel oil your advertising ; damaging your own engine along with people here who are new. So what's the spec?

For any of you that need additional verification that the 229.51 is the correct spec, and that the ESP formula conforms, here's a photo of the label.
