I changed my oil by myself 1st time for any car, literally followed these instructions to the tee & finished in a hr. The 27mm screw for the oil filter gave me little problem and opening the hood oil cap while draining helps. Great video👌

Oil extractor pump: 2 comments: The Mercedes shop in The Woodlands, TX used one on my GLC. I did one in-house oil change. I did the rest of the oil changes myself. One test, I used the pump extractor. Then I went to the drain plug. I think it as less than an ounce of oil that was left behind.

This why I’m doing it myself I didn’t like the pump had me thinking they pumping the oil right back in so I’m here about to do it myself plus 56-125 = save me $70

@@TheDurbinCompound no lie I was almost thinking I was draining my transmission due to the unexpected shape my C300 differs from your sump pan I was shocked cause I was looking for the same shape as yours I'm assuming maybe Mercedes uses what's on hand vs engine? 😅 or is that why your C300 is a W205 and mine is not?

I think the service manual says 25Nm then loosen a 1/4 of a turn and then torque to 30Nm. I think it is to make sure the cap o-ring is properly seated. Who knows, that’s the only thing that makes sense

I think it’s a 15mm. I could be wrong. The plug is long, you unscrew it a ways. The stream of oil will shoot out far toward the driver side so be ready.
