I didn't know there were multiple M1 0w-40's out there, so I guess my answer to your question is no. The package looked like a large version of the quarts I buy that are MB 229.3, 229.5.

I didn't buy it, since I keep 10 quarts on hand and replenish them after each oil change. I do that because the stores around here often have too few of the 0w-40's to do an oil change, so I have to plan ahead. Which reminds me, the local Wal Mart started selling them again. They had them on a shelf which was deep enough to hold only 6 quarts, which doesn't help us MB owners. But now they rearranged things and they often have more available (I can park my car in one spot and walk to the Wal Mart and Pep Boys - between the two of them I can sometimes get 8-10 quarts.)

Next time I'm at Advance I will check its label for the MB 229.5 designation.
