Engine Oils; Brake Fluid - Mercedes-Benz 300SDL-TURBO 126 D 1986 Owner's Manual

Engine Oils

Engine oils are specifically tested for
their suitability in our engines. There­
fore, use only engine oils recom ­
mended by us. Information on recom ­
mended brands is available at any
authorized MERCEDES-BENZ dealer.

Brake Fluid

During vehicle operation, the boiling
point of the brake fluid is continuously
reduced through the absorption of
moisture from the atm osphere. Under
extrem ely hard operating conditions,
this m oisture content can lead to the
form ation of vapor in the system thus
reducing the system 's efficiency.
The brake fluid m ust therefore be
replaced annually, preferably in the
spring.
It is recom m ended to use only brake
fluid approved by MERCEDES-BENZ.
Your MERCEDES-BENZ dealer will
provide you w ith additional inform a­
tion.
