We all know MB specs 229.5 and 229.51 Oils of various grades 0W30, 0W40, 5W30, 5W40 etc...
What if one was to use a highly regarded oil like PUP or M1EP?
If warranty coverage is no longer an issue, would the above suffice for the annual 20,000kms change interval?
Or could I just run these oils in my GLK350 (M276 engine) with half the interval?
I'm not meaning to cheap out as I have no problems buying the 229.5 stuff... just being curious
Cheers
