In the event that the:
R engine oil brand
R grade (MB Sheet number)
R SAE classification (viscosity)
is not available, you can use another min-
eral or synthetic engine oil which has been
approved by Mercedes-Benz.
Mixing oils reduces the benefits of high-
grade engine oil.
! Do not use lubricant additives as they can
lead to increased wear and damage to
mechanical assemblies. The use of lubri- cant additives will result in a restriction of
your warranty.
! Engine oils for vehicles without a diesel
particle filter may also be used temporarily
in vehicles with a diesel particle filter if the
engine oil listed is not available. You must
then have an oil change carried out as soon
as possible.
30 Restriction: only SAE 0W-40 or SAE 5W-40 engine oils may be used. Technical data
