My 07 has a 20K mile oil change interval according to the service schedule. I ignored that recommendation and I think that for 08+ (your model) they backed off to 12K miles(as you noted). Looks like there was a big "Go Green" push in '07!
Just a quick story: I also have a MB E320 and when we bought it, MB was giving away free oil changes based on the oil life monitor. My car would go in at approx 15,000 miles. When MB stopped the free oil changes, they changed the oil change intervals to 10-12,000 miles (depending on AMG or regular engines). The only good news is that my UOAs very about the same as a friend who was changing his oil at 7500 miles (same yr/model E320).
