Hi guys,just bought the above mentioned, 85,000km (50,000 miles?) on it,been trying to find out as much service tips,advice as i can,it has full records of A and B servicing,have no idea what that is...

It seems from what ive read here,it needs synthetic oil?,i planned on using that anyway,but hope the used car dealer didnt change it with reg oil if thats the case (i pick it up tomorrow),can i do oil changes at any lube shop?,any tips for a MB newbie would be great,very excited about this car,its in great shape....Thanks.......Riot.....

 

http://www.whnet.com/4x4/oil.html . Here is all the oil information you will every need for your car. synthetic is a must, no dino in these cars.

 

Congrats on your purchase.
By all means, use the synthetic oil and find a good, reputable shop.

what a fun day o driving today,I've driven Trans am's for years and am still impressed by this supercharged 4 banger,what a diff. in fuel economy

the used car dealer was "nice" enough to do an oil change for me,straight run o the mill 5w30....
went over to the local lube shop and had mobil1 5w40 put in right away,no damage done i hope?[:@]

Thanks......Riot.....
