Which one is better in a 2000 MB E430 with more than 80k miles ? If they are priced the same at about $3.20/quart. The OCI is 1 year/12k miles, daily car with 22 miles 70% city streets round trip.

Where do you buy them for $3.20 a qt?

I just finished a 5000mi UOA with Synpower. I personally think the maxlife synthetic and the synpower are both great oils, it just depends on if you need a thinner or thicker one. Being you live in SoCal, either should work fine, and I know for sure the Synpower is MB certified. I would go 6000mi and UOA before going the full 12k however, unless you have a big sump on that Merc. How many quarts does it hold?
