Saw mobile 1 in the handbook, just wanted to check if Mobile 1 was used by all.
Also, which grade oil is commonly used for our English climate ?

I emailed AMG in Germany and got a prompt reply that they only recommend Mobil 1. Seems the dealers think otherwise, using Shell Helix... I know which advice I will follow!
