Fully synthetic oils such as Mobil 1 circulate around your Mercedes-Benz engine more easily than traditional mineral oils, so your engine operates more efficiently. Mobil 1 also gets to work faster so your engine reaches peak operating efficiency quicker. Both of these benefits mean potentially improved fuel efficiencies that save you money on fuel.

Whether you have a small family Mercedes-Benz A-Class or a luxury SL-Class roadster, please use the Which Oil (link is external) tool to help find out which Mobil oil is right for your Mercedes-Benz.

Tests show that Mobil 1 can reach all moving parts of the engine 15 seconds faster than some conventional oils. Until your oil circulates fully, friction between dry parts of the engine will slowly reduce the life of the engine. Synthetic engine oils like Mobil 1 start circulating right away, protecting every moving part within the engine, which over time can translate into maintenance cost savings.

It’s important to use the right oil in your car to comply with Mercedes-Benz’s manufacturer specifications. Using the right Mobil 1 product during routine servicing and according to your vehicle’s handbook will not affect the Mercedes-Benz manufacturer's warranty.
