Valvoline Oil Campaign - Need Volunteers!

Hi all,

Do you have a high mileage Mercedes and are interested in a free Valvoline oil product? For this campaign, we need a volunteer who has either a high mileage car, or a modern/new car to try out one of Valvoline's oil products for a specific time frame. We will be asking the volunteers for a before and after review of their car and driving experience with the oil, as well as some pictures they can use. Then, a report will be written on the campaign and your experiences with the oil, and Valvoline will share their story as well. It's fairly straightforward and a lot of cars on MB would qualify for the project.

Here are the models that would qualify to use the product: C250, SLK250, C350, E350, SLK 305, ML350, R350, CL550, CLS55, E550, S550, SL63 AMG, CLS63, AMG, E63 AMG, S63 AMG, SLK55 AMG, C300, C350E, C43 AMG, C63 AMG, C 63 S AMG, E300, E 43 AMG, S550, S550E, S550 MAYBACH, E400, CLA250, CLA 45 AMG, E550, CLS 400, CLS 550, CLS 63 S AMG, GT AMG, GT-S,AMG, SLC 300, SLC 43 AMG, SL450, SL550, SL63 AMG, GLA 250, GLA 45 AMG, GLC300, GLC 43 AMG, GLE 350, GLE550E, GLE43 AMG, GLE 63 S AMG, GLS450, GLS550, GLS 63 AMG, G550, G63 AMG

Let me know if you have any other questions. Thanks!
