Townsend has good input on how good mercedes is. I talked to ex-saab tech that the saab coolant seemed to not do well with head gaskets, and switching to mercedes was a big improvement.
Both are euro spec phosphate free, likely G48 spec'd, 2-3 year coolant. I've read that mercedes coolant is a bit different than other similar euro coolants.
The new orange chrysler 5-year coolant, cross between dexcool and G48/euro, is best in theory, but mercedes has the good record.
