C280 Oil Type

Quick question. I just picked up a '95 C280 and I need to change the oil. Can anyone tell me what grade I should use? Thanks. J.

RE: C280 Oil Type

I would use a 5W-30 or a 10W-30 weight and use Mobil 1 fully synthetic.

You should be fine with either regardless of your climate and driving.
