<B><i>Introduction:</i></B> This is Part 2 of the Do It Yourself Oil &
Filter Change article. The primary purpose of this page is to illustrate oil,
oil filter and air filter replacement on the new 3 valve/cylinder engines such
as the E430 (M113) and E320 (M112). If you have any doubts or are uncertain of your ability to complete these procedures we advise you to seek professional assistance from a qualified technician.
We have selected a 1998 E 430  to illustrate the procedure for changing oil
and filter. Other E-Class vehicles may utilize similar but not exactly
the same steps described below. </font>

sealing O-rings (part number includes filter and needed O-rings), several quarts of oil (8.5 quarts in our
application) and one air filter (Part# 604 094 05 04 in our case). See your
owner's manual for recommended weights and capacity. We recommend
using whatever oil your mechanic uses when he/she services the car.
PeachParts recommends this procedure only for "in-between" oil
changes. It is still best to take your car to a dealer or qualified
independent for its scheduled maintenance services. There's no
substitute for having a trained and experienced Tech inspect your car
for potential issues before they become major problems.

We begin by parking the car on level ground. You want the engine oil
slightly warm but not up to full operating temperature hot. Open the hood, and locate the following items; oil filter housing,
dipstick/tube, oil fill cap. Remove the oil fill cap and dipstick. Then take the
<span style="mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt">oil filter socket</span> and loosen the oil filter-housing
4-5
complete turns. This allows air to get in there so the oil can drain
out.</font></td>

for the Topsider...</font>
<p><font color="#000000" face="Arial" size="3">It may be helpful to
make a 45 degree cut in the end of the Topsider tube to prevent it from
sealing against the bottom of the oil pan. Fully close the hose clamp
and pump up the Topsider 40-50 times to build a sufficient vacuum. Then
just insert the Topsider tube down the dipstick tube as far as it will
go. When you feel it bottom out, you know you are there. When the tube
is all the way in and the Topsider is pumped up simply release the hose
clamp and let the Topsider go to work. You should see oil filling the
tube almost instantly. It should take approximately 15-20 minutes for
all the oil to be sucked out. During this time it may be helpful to
inspect other under hood items. About 2 minutes into the oil removal you
can begin removing the old filter. Unscrew the <span style="mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt">oil
filter cover</span> and remove the assembly completely. Be careful not to drip too much oil on the surrounding
areas.</font></p>
