2013 GL350
Low oil w/leak
Hi everyone, just picked up a 2013 GL350. On the drive home the warning message “check oil at next refuel” showed up...
i checked the oil when I got home and it was below the minimum mark.
Ideally I should buy the correct oil and fill it up. But I need to drive to the nearest store that carries Mobile One ESP.... I have a case of mobile one full synthetic 0w20 in my garage, would it be a bad idea to fill up with this incorrect oil and drive to the shop to pick up the oil and do an oil change soon?
Thanks...
