Question:
Is Mobil 1 ESP Formula M 5W-40 an Imported Oil?
In a 2008 Sprinter 3500 6 cylinder diesel, you recommend an oil available only at a Mercedes-Benz dealer. The engine is an import, but the oil is made in the USA but labeled as an imported oil. How can an American oil be considered imported?
