Mercedes C300 W205 Oil Change

[@origtex]

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.

[@adrienvelasquez5275]

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👌

[@cianegan8430]

good video, but consider using a oil extractor pump (quite cheap online next time via dipstick instead of removing the sump bolt, its quicker and cleaner :)

[@TheDurbinCompound]

I am not a fan of this method as I feel you miss a lot of oil and sludge in the sump

[@darthtyranus7683]

@@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 just know mine was made in Alabama lmao

Hi Durbin, you forgot to mention the model number for the oil filter. Could you put it please? Thanks.

[@TheDurbinCompound]

A 270 180 01 09

[@darrylmeans725]

Thanks you for the videos. I'm learning and gaining confidence with each one.

[@TheDurbinCompound]

Thanks for the comment. I need to go through and add the info. Sorry I forgot about this one!

[@KevinHoman]

Great video, one thing. The oil filter housing is 25 NM + 5 NM. So, 30 NM.

[@TheDurbinCompound]

👍👍👍

[@rooftopkrn]

Why is it that they put 25 NM + 5 NM instead of just 30NM?

[@TheDurbinCompound]

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

[@rgviper]

So torque to 25Nm or 30Nm?

[@geopin7672]

Excellent vid keep em coming just saved me 250 thats what the dealership wants here in cali 😂

[@TheDurbinCompound]

Yikes! Will be doing a transmission fluid change soon! The price is still pretty cheap but you definitely save those service costs!

[@goldmanmartinez2678]

Here in NY they asking for a lovely $ 800 bucks.

WOW!!

Very good. Good descriptions. Thank you.

[@robertjones7565]

Hope you are not relying on two hydraulic jacks to hold up the car, don't you have jack stands?.

[@AutobahnDan]

Nice vid👍 if you can find the Mann filter cheaper, go for it. It’s exactly the same thing in the box.

[@TheDurbinCompound]

Yeah buddy! Thanks for the comment bro!

[@702xRyder]

Bro did you spin the 13mm drain bolt owards the engine bay or the trunk? Right is tight left is Loose but is being a sucker

[@laxum7]

you are a good teacher bro!!

[@autoraysgarage8938]

i have a 2016 c300 and i'm so confused because i took the splash shield off and my oil pan does not look like yours underneath I do see a small looking oil pan thing that but the drain plugs pointing towards the passenger side

[@TheDurbinCompound]

Weird. I haven’t changed my oil in awhile but I’m 99% my plug is on the driver side.

[@autoraysgarage8938]

@@TheDurbinCompound yeah this my first time changing the oil in this car...do you mind if i DM on ig with a picture of underneath my car

[@razor4059]

what is the drain plug washer part number? i Just got a 2017 E300, and i dont have any mx manuals yet. thanks for the videos

[@TheDurbinCompound]

Just ask the dealer for the crush washer. Every vehicle uses the same little copper washer. They are under $1

[@carloscolon5151]

Excellent!!! Thanks for tips.

[@rocknroyale]

Say hypothetically, When you do your own Service A or B but later have a possible issue down the road that say is covered under warranty through the dealer, will they honor the warranty still or give you crap and void it since you did your own service prior?? Thanks!

[@TheDurbinCompound]

I have had no issue with this. I provide more thorough records than the dealer does. The notes on a service record at the dealer are vague and sometimes just leave out important information.

[@stuckinamomentt]

In an other video I saw them using an oil extraction pump for draining the old oil. Which way is better?

[@TheDurbinCompound]

I feel you potentially miss a lot of oil in the pan by using and extraction pump. I prefer to drain at the drain plug

[@qkrehgus]

Very helpful. Thank you!

[@702xRyder]

Apreciate this bro got a 2016 c300 with AMG package I been changing my oil since I was 17 ,I just need to know the size of the socket for the oil filter

[@TheDurbinCompound]

27mm

[@TheDurbinCompound]

I have many videos on the car. Check out my car mechanics playlist

[@702xRyder]

@@TheDurbinCompound thank you , do you happen to know size of drain plug ? I just removed the front bumper 2 weeks ago and changed out the grill for the diamond grill looks pretty cool

[@TheDurbinCompound]

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.

[@dannykalpakchi2016]

Great video! Where did you get the crush seal for the oil pan drain plug?

[@TheDurbinCompound]

I get mine at the dealer. They are less than $1USD.

[@dannykalpakchi2016]

Thanks🤘🏻

[@ericdipnarine2439]

Does your c class have a dip stick to check oil manually?

[@TheDurbinCompound]

Yes. Engine oil. Transmission fluid no.

[@geoinstruments3180]

do you recommend 5w-30??

[@johnchristian1444]

How do you jack it up from the front end to Insert jack stands on the sides ? I can’t seem to find the jack point

[@TheDurbinCompound]

It is actually 2 little bumper pads on the rocker that are maybe 2.5” apart. My jack spans it just fine with the cup. They make the inserts as well that have a large pad on them. I have never invested in them though

[@johnchristian1444]

TheDurbinCompound thank you , & would you be able to tell me the torque spec to re tighten the lugs

[@ahmetgucuyener9060]

Very good job👍🏻

[@bnc723]

Do you recommend oil extracting instead of draining?

[@TheDurbinCompound]

I only recommend draining

[@overspray6057]

Extracting equates to taking a shower and putting your old underware back on.

[@nn-pc4pb]

You didn’t show where the oil goes back in. Sorry I’m no mechanic so I need to see it

[@KailashNathan]

You pour it into the engine. It was in the video.

Have you’ve done the transmission vid yet 👍

[@humbertomonasterio3900]

Semper fi brother

[@tcr73903]

I accidently put the oil in the side where the filter goes, all 7 quarts. Do you think this is a problem.

[@TheDurbinCompound]

No not an issue

[@glasser2819]

knowing how Benz wisely removed the transmission deepstick but kept an engine oil fil cap... I'd use that 👍

[@TankHandy]

How many miles do you do between oil changes 10k?

[@liluzivert823]

5-10k but I just did an oil change on a family members 2015 c300 that drove 18k miles before i changed it and it was still running smooth, but recommended is 5-10k

Hey I over tighten the drain plug and cracked the oil pan a bit and now is leaking oil. You know if it’s too hard to replace the pan at home?

[@powermoves101]

Is it still leaking?

[@richmoeee2009]

Do I have to use that fancy tool to make it to 30 nm or can I just do it without it ?

[@TheDurbinCompound]

Either or! Good and tight

[@richmoeee2009]

So torque to 25Nm or 30Nm?
