[QUOTE="Richard L, post: 1001576, member: 52972"] Johnny, Is it really fair to judge an oil when compare a 0w30 oil to a 5W30? Did you use a diferent filter when you changed oils? Your point about needing better filters for extending the oil change imterval is well taken. I am going 1 year/13K miles on Mobil-1, 10w40 which is what Mercedes recommends, but they also use 9 quarts of oil in my 3.0 ltr V6. Mercedes uses a Mann filter which runs about $18 and is a separate filter cartridge and canister. ...Rich [/QUOTE]
