Hi everone,
My dad just got a '95 S600 this past weekend. The records indicate that the oil was changed this past september and has 10/30 weight oil in it. I've heard that the S600 likes a heavier 10/40 or 10/50 weight. Which is the best to use?

Thanks

P.S. This may sound dumb, but does anyone know if it has a 4 or 5 speed transmission?

Do you have the owner's manual? This would be the most authoritative source. If you did not receive the owner's manual with the car, I believe you can still purchase them from MBNA.

W140 look at my post above. One guy said either 0w-40 or 15W-50, maybe the dealer would know?

btw I got the window working on my SDL today, and the trunk seal in. Progress is being made.

Cant go wrong with 140wt Gear Lube in the cold Conneticut temps!

Actually a multi-grade 85W-140 would be more appropriate for cold environments. The 85W would be much better for those 10 degree early morning starts in New England; much easier on the cylinder bore/rings/bearings than straight 140W.
