Engine Oil Type

RE: Engine Oil Type
Well, that's what you're saying now. Earlier you said the V6 failed due to high running temps when using conventional oil. If it fails because of high running temps, doesn't that means the running temps are too high?
I'm just goading you. Go sit down and relax.
However, the failure of the V6 using conventional oil was also tied into the running temps of the V6 which run much hotter then the older S6.

It is all according how you look at it to? Too and much are the same but not the same, as in to be or not to be?
Relax I'm also goading you.

RE: Engine Oil Type
It's not the difference between "too" and "much." You said engine "failure" was tied to high temps in the first part of that sentence. That was a complete thought. Then you explained that the newer V6 runs hotter than the older one in the second part of that sentence. Another complete thought. If engine failure is due to high temps, then the temps must be too high. Are you with me yet?
Sorry, but "to be" and "not to be" is a positive and a negative, respectively, and therefore are opposites, not the same.
Also, "too" is an adverb and "much" is an adjective" so you bomb out on that point as well.
I'm going to keep goading you if you don't sit down and relax.

Also, do I (or the shop) need to reset the FSS?
Please explain FSS?? Is that the service countdown on the computer, and if not is it possible to reset the service interval having changed oil and filter at home?

It is just a countdown, does not affect the performance of the car.
To reset:
(1) Turn key to ON.
(2) Tap zero button "0" twice.
(3) Turn key to "OFF".
(4) Press and hold "0" and turn key back ON.
(5) Continue to hold on "0" until the bitch screams.
Now FSS countdown has been reset to 10,000 miles.

RE: Engine Oil Type
I have a 2001 C240. On my instrument cluster left side, low is the **** for adjusting the cluster lighting. Just below that **** there is an oval hole. There is also one on the right side of the cluster. There is no button. Is there a button inside the hole? I don't want to go poking around inside a hole when I don't know what is inside. As there is a hole on each side I would guess there is a release to remove the cluster cover, maybe?
