Mobil 1 0W-40 european flavor oil carries the 229.5 spec and is widely available.
Tim,

I see you now drive a CDI as well. Which Mobil 1 are you running in it?


The several year old partial jug of Mobil 1 Truck Turbodiesel synthetic I have @ home, is IIRC: 0W-50......and you are correct, there is/are no endorsements by MB on the back label. -But the Mobil 1 jug is 3+ years old now.

I'm headed to Walmart this afternoon, so I'll report back on the oil weights of Mobil 1 Turbodiesel truck full synthetic they now have for sale.
