• Oil General motors EU spec oil 26 Feb 2011 (Forum)
  I notice that some vauxhall/chevrolet/Saab dealers are only using the GM spec dexos 1 and2  fully synthetic for their 2011-  engines, this will have a major impact on oil service prices. this is apparently factory fill, so beware of aftermarket oil changes outside of official

• Merc C270 CDI 11 May 2005 (Forum)
  , it was last served at 12000 miles and is saying it doesn't need another oil change until 30000 - which I think is a little long. Is it possible to do an oil change on these yourself?
