You can't fill the oil filter on the MB's I deal with. All cartrige style, and filling the canister itself is a waste of time because it just drains right into the pan.

I was talking about a well maintained M104 with 70k miles on it. Dry filter, 0w40 in the sump, by the time it caught it had oil pressure. Kind of surprised me how fast it shot up actually.
