It's blended in Belgium, could it be Castrol? Here's more information on another forum.


Of course MB recommends M1 0-40, but your dealer has others to choose from. It's the same way here in the States with most every auto dealership.

I just saw a TV ad for Cooltech oil by Petronas saying it keeps the engine cooler by carrying the heat away.

Of course it does, just like any other oil.

At this moment, in W Europe, we can find both versions in the same shops ( old version stocks and the brand new CoolTech version).

I bought some new Syntium 7000 to put in the Smart, and now I can definitely say that the one in my UOA was old version, or at least old bottle/old packaging.
