2011 Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG oil capacity, type & filter

The 2011 Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG takes 9 qt of 0W-40 oil (A3/B4 required). Supported by 6 checked sources.

Applies to checked engine: 6.0L V12 Turbo.

Catalog selectors list the 2011 Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG as its own oil row, separate from nearby Mercedes-Benz model rows. In the checked rows, the checked capacity, viscosity, and filter pattern is not identical to 2011 Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG, 2011 Mercedes-Benz CL63 AMG, and 2011 Mercedes-Benz CLS63 AMG. Confirm the exact model name before buying oil or a filter; similar model names can share or split catalog rows. Current-row label: model qualifier SL65. Nearby catalog rows use C63; choose the matching qualifier in the seller selector.

Capacity 9 qt i Based on 1 checked source: Pennzoil OATS. Additional cross-check is still pending: a second checked capacity source and capacity condition (service fill / with filter vs dry fill). Use it as a reference, then confirm the service-fill / with-filter amount before adding oil. See how we verify. Learn how we verify fitment
