oil recommendation e250 bt

Hey everyone,

I was wondering which of the two oils should i use in california, los angeles. Mercedes recommend 229.52, but they have 0w-30 and 5w-30, does it matter?

Thanks,
Steve

Both oils meet the spec and if it were me I would use the ole 5w-30, someone else may suggest 0w-30 who GAF! you make the decision of the year!

Thanks for the replies, That website is very interesting.
I was just a little confused of all the options they have. I'm used to getting 0w-40 on my other cars.
