Default Re: 0W-40 oil discontinued

Now that is very interesting news that should be circulated to every member of this forum. Feets, do you have some kind of spec sheet from MB showing the approved substitution of 5w for 0w that can be scanned and uploaded to the forum for individual downloading and storage with owners' manuals and other records? That would be very helpful for all of us. Thanks.
