| Two quick questions:
1. The manual says there is a dash display for a low oil level warning. Is this the case for the B 200 as well as the B 200 Turbo? Has anyone with a B 200 actually experienced this warning?
2. What brand and grade of oil in put in the cars at the Rastatt factory? Is it QS European 5W30?
I checked my oil tonight for the first time in 3000 km since the last check. By golly that dipstick is hard to read, the oil is so clean even, at 7600 km. Anyway the level is approximately at the 1/3 mark up the operating range as opposed to roughly the halfway mark when I checked the oil before. Mind you, the engine was not as warm. On the off chance that I do need to drop a half L in before I change the oil at 10,000 km, it'd be nice to know what brand/grade is in there now. I am carrying a L of Mobil 1 0W40 in the spare tire well.
