Is the kompressor oil needed to be changed? If yes, how often or what is the mileage intervals for changing the kompressor oil.

Thanks in advance.

I thought the supercharger used the engine oil ? If so, then when you change the engine oil, you are changing the supercharger oil.

I found this on youtube but don't know whether it is relevant.

The supercharger has its own oil. IIRC you need jet turbine oil. Do aquick search on the Mercedes forums to find out which one.

Thanks Mark.

I know where to get the kompressor oil. However, at what intervals should I change it? TRhere is nothing mentioned about kompressor oil changes in the user manual.

I dont think Mercedes state an interval, but all oils degrade over time. Unless you are doing starship milage I would change once then forget about it.
