I just purchased a 2005 c230 for my son's graduation present. I am having a heck of time trying to find exactly what kind of oil I should use. I am looking up the car and everything keeps coming back c230K for the Kompressor model. I have the sedan sport model. I am 5w 30, 10w 30 and 0w 30. I live in Arizona, so the heat it starting to ramp up and my son will have about a 40 minute commute to school. Any suggestions on what oil I should use? Brand, high mileage (126k miles), weight? Also, how accurate is the oil measurement on the dashboard cluster? Would it be a good idea to get a dipstick or is it even possible to add one to this car?
I've been looking over this forum this morning and I think it is awesome what you guys do. Keep up the good work!

--> This suggests you have a variety of viscosities and manufacturers to choose from, the common denominator is that they are full synthetic. My preference is Castrol or Mobil 1.
