Synthetic Oil for MB

Actually, Mobil 1 does not do the best job of controling wear in the valve train with rocker arms. There will be wear on the tip pads and thickness shims.

You can add a can of BG Motor Oil Additive (MOA) which contains a dose of zink dialkyl-dithiophosphate (ZDDP) which is the best antiwear additive for this 'sliding, boundary lubrication' application.
