Oil Change And Filter Replacement - Mercedes-Benz OM 457 LA Betriebsanleitung

Oil change and filter replacement

The intervals for maintenance work (including oil
change and filter replacement) depend, among other fa-
ctors, on the engine oil grade and the sulphur content of
the fuel used.
If the fuel used has a sulphur content exceeding 0.3% by
weight, the replacement intervals for engine oil and filters
should be halved. If the sulphur content exceeds 0.8% by
weight, the replacement intervals should be reduced to
30% of the values listed.
If a different oil grade is used to top up to the correct
capacity, the replacement interval is determined by the
lower oil grade.
When topping up, only use engine oils of the same
grade.
Select the engine oil viscosity according to the outside
air temperature – see the "Engine oils" section of the Oper-
ating Instructions or the Mercedes-Benz Specifications for
Service Products.
