Oil for Mercedes C36

[Kes]

I'm wondering what's a good oil for my Mercedes C36, I've been using Mobil 1 15W50 for awhile and want to know if changing to Mobil 1 0W40 would be better? I live in Vancouver, BC, not a really cold area. Thanks

This is just my personal opinion. I would use the Mobil 1 0W40. Don't see any reason to run a 15W50 in a C6.

By the way,

AMSOIL 5W40 European Formula seems to be a good oil.

Reason of using 15W50 is because the 0W40 doesn't exist when I first own the car and no retail store carry them in Vancouver. And I just found out that's one place to order it.

Is the 0-40 better? No (lower HT/HS). But, it is the factory fill and should be available at your local M-B or Porsche dealer.
