Mobil & MDL launch "Mobil Delvac Kit Bag"

Mobil Lubricants and Mercedes-Benz Commercials have launched a unique promotional package that will help new owners of the ‘triple-pointed-star’ brands' trucks to make sure they use the correct oil when ‘topping up’.

Increasingly, modern truck engines are demanding specific low ash synthetic based oils (Low SAPS, Sulfated ASH, Phosphorus, Sulphur). Using ‘ordinary’ non low SAPS oils can cause damage, a fact which many drivers are unaware.

It is almost impossible to find low SAPS oils at retail service stations and so, if a truck is low on oil, many drivers will reach for the nearest fit, which usually is an oil designed for passenger cars.

Mobil Lubricants and Mercedes-Benz Commercials recognised this problem and have jointly launched the Mobil Delvac Kit Bag. One of these kit bags will be placed in the cab of every new Mercedes-Benz truck sold in Ireland.

“The Mobil Delvac Kit Bag contains a 4 litre pack of Mobil Delvac XHP LE 10w40 oil. This oil is approved to Daimler standards. Having these approvals makes it suitable for use in almost all Mercedes-Benz light and heavy commercial vehicles, eliminating the risk of using the wrong oil. By having the oil at hand in the cab of the truck, the driver can always top up knowing he/she is using the right product and help deliver long engine life,” explains Andy Kavanagh, Distributor Business Consultant, Ireland/UK.

“There are a number of other items in the Mobil Delvac Kit Bag,” he added. “There is a torch (batteries included!), a high visibility jacket and a year’s subscription to Fleet Transport Magazine.”

“We are also delighted to announce that MUTEC are now using Mobil Delvac products in their workshop with Mobil Delvac XHP LE 10w40 as their engine lubricant for all services and a range of transmission oils and greases. This product is all supplied by our Strategic Distributor, SJ Burke & Co. of Wicklow. Our other Strategic Distributor is Sean Delaney & Sons, Cork.” For more information on Mobil distributors in Ireland log on to www.distributorlocator.exxonmobil.com
