I am wondering if 5W-40 API SJ snowmobile oil would be a OK in a car engine? API SJ is the same as the benz engine calls for and I do 5000-6000 mile changes.
 
Is your benz engine a diesel?

Since the oil carries API SJ rating for passenger cars and your car calls for API SJ, it sounds like a match to me.
 
No its a gas 5.0 liter M113. I feel like the snowmobile oil is just as good as car oil.
