I still can't figure out why Amsoil bothers to seek Mercedes-Benz factory approvals for a relatively low volume application. And their primary market is Europe, where nobody gives a flying fig about the API donut. However - the E-Tech 0W-40 does have API certification, and Motul gets API certs for the vast majority of its motor oils. Motul E-tech 0W-40, which is MB 229.3, VW 502/503.1 (3 year drain spec)/503 and GM LL is only "SJ" rated. Alot of this is politics and money that is paid by an oil company to a manufacturer to "pass" these tests. And just because an oil doesn't carry a certain spec doesn't mean it wouldn't pass that particular test w/ flying colors. It is more of a fuel economy and extended drain spec. The MB 229.5 spec is not "tougher" in the "beat the **** out of the oil and the oil laughs in your face" sense. Both have passed the toughest torture tests in the oil industry and warrant serious consideration. Both of these are ACEA A3-rated and represent the "best of the best." Amsoil gets the Gold Medal and Mobil 1 gets the Silver Medal. Only 21 oils in the world are approved to be on Mercedes Sheet 229.5.
