A friend of mine is coming up to a year on PU 5w40 Euro but just under 5k miles.
This is a 5 year old Mercedes with the 5.5L normally aspirated engine. The manufacturer interval is 1 year / 10k miles. The vehicle does see some very short trips but will get up to temperature once a week and get out for a good hour run a couple of times a month.
I'm suggesting 18 months / 7.5k miles. Perhaps do a UOA at that point. What do you think?
