Ordered the oil from my local NAPA at 8am today and had it by 1pm. Great deal.
I get my Mann HU821X filters from Advance Auto parts.

Doesn't your local Napa carry the filter also? As I recall, they are about $10.

I don't think NAPA carries the MANN. little over $7.00 at Advance.

My Napa carries the Mann and it's 20% off this month if you have a AAA card.

That looks like a good deal.

Thanks for the tip, why don't they put the ESP in gallon jugs? No wonder there is so much plastic garbage in this world. Do you guys have any preference on fuel filter brands?

What is benefit of ESP over regular Mobil 1? Is this more beneficial for you diesel guys?

It has one specific advantage - it's on the Mercedes list of approved motor oils for the Sprinter diesel engine.

Mobil 1 ESP oils help prolong the life and maintain the efficiency of emission systems in both diesel- and gasoline-powered automobiles. They are formulated to be fully compatible with passenger car diesels that have the latest diesel particulate filters (DPFs) and gasoline catalytic converters (CATs).

You can use other brands of oil and maintain your engine warranty if the oil is on MB approved oil list.

ESP is a Mercedes approved oil for the Blutec engine - "regular" Mobil 1 isn't.

Thanks for the oil sale alert. I changed mine on Thursday night, first time, easiest rig I have ever changed oil on. Wish my 2015 Tundra was that easy.
