Castrol oil meets MB specs.
But why are you changing it every 3, 000 miles? Man that is way too premature.
And since these biscuit heads "might" have used dinosaur oil, tell me,
How did they change out your Oil Filter? The O-rings?

Something smells here.

Stay with Full Synthetic
Change out your Oil Filter and O-Rings.
Switch to a Summer Weight Oil.
