Oil is always changed no later than 5k miles. Has 115k miles on it, and is out of its extended warranty. The information gathered is only from the website listings of the respective brands. 1 Has anyone ran motul 8100 x-clean in their bluetec or diesel Vehicle in question is a 3l e320 bluetec mercedes with a dpf. P.S: I am not sure of the official list of Liqui Moly oils sold in India.
