Mercedes FSS letters and lawsuit

greenspun.com : LUSENET : SpannMan's Logbook : One Thread

Call 1-800-FORMERCEDES and register your car with them if you haven't already done so. Then ask to speak to someone about the FSS letters and lawsuit so you can get the letters about it that you should. The lawsuit affects the car, not any particular owner, so your car is covered by the 150,000 mile engine warranty and you need to get the letter along with the $35 service coupon. You must use synthetic if you want to be covered by the extended engine warranty. You better use synthetic if you plan to follow the FSS recommendations. However, if you don't care about either of the above and want to use dino oil, that shouldn't be a problem if you change the oil every 3K or so.
