Well I am trying to get the oil water cooler and oil filter off and what a PIA. Getting the starter off was a huge pain. Getting to the top bolt was not easy. Now I am triyng to unbolt the oil filter housing with the water cooler attached. There are (4) bolts or screws holding on the oil filter housing. They use socket head cap screws and so far I have stripped out the internal portion of the first cap screw. Why does Mercedes use these kind of fasteners, because they suck.

Now how do I get the screw off? Any ideas? What about the other 3? Will heat help remove the screws since they are torques on pretty good.

This job has really been easy right up to this point, but it really sucks now. There is not good access to these fasteners so honestly I am stuck.
