Question Mobil1 oW40
Where to buy Mobil1 0W40? The local dealship here in Washington state said they have not even seen 0W40 oil yet it is only available on paper only.

Mercedes recommends 0W40 for E430 so could someone please tell me if they know where to buy Mobil 0W40 synthetic oil from?

Thanks,
Victor

We use Mobil 1 0W-40 at our dealership too. I've seen the six-pack boxes of Mobil 1 0W-40 around our shop, but I have no idea where to get them other than the dealer. I've never seen 0W-40 in stores.

Thanks for the reply.

I live on west coast in Washington state. There are no Mobil stations here. I have also called 1-800-FOR-MERCEDES and they said they do not know where to get it from. I have tried Schucks and GI-Joes and Mercedes dealership and they do not carry it either.

If anybody know please share it.

Thanks,
Victor

mbtech,

I have a 2001 E55 and would like to get the 0w-40 oil. I'm in Orange County and I've been unable to locate it in local stores. Going by your signature, I would venture to guess you probably work at a dealership in the area. May I ask which dealership you work for? Can I schedule an appointment and request YOU work on my car?

Thanks,
Mug

For those who insist on using Mobil 1 10W-40, the following site is an M/B dealer that sells it.

How come they don't sell this Mobil 1 10W-40 at a regular car shop/store? Is this something special?? Or just not a lot of demand for it?

A couple of people have mentioned 10w-40 ... To clear up any confusion, we are discussing 0w-40 weight oil.

Check you service manual. 15w-50 is one of the recommended weights depending on your climate.

15w-50 is what I use here in So. Cal.... You would be ok using it too. I picked up 5qt jugs of Mobil1 at Walmart for $13.94 each ($2.79/qt). Hell of a deal.
