Hi, I have E320 1995 and my question is what type of oil should I use for this car? and how many quarts does this car takes when you change the oil?

Synthetic oil are expensive, can I use any non synthetic? if yes!, what brand and SEA are recommended?
Thank you

There are plenty of oils you can use. Stick to well known brands. Don't use anything below -40 grade. You can use 10W-40, for example.
I particularly like Mobil 1 synthetic oil and I replace mine every 10K miles with either 0W-40 or 10W-40 high mileage formula. It takes 8 quarts. First put in 7 1/2 and then top off as necessary.

Mobil One is the synthetic that MB uses.
Castrol Syntec is also a good choice.
Weight depends on your climate and the type of driving you do.
5W-40 or 10W-40 is a good safe choice.
