I've done the procedure once (and after a top-end-rebuild, discovered that I need to replace it again).
I don't know about the 190E, but this is the procedure for the M104 motor on the 300E:
The sender is accessed under the vehicle on the driver's side near the starter. A wiring connection is attached. Don't need to disconnect battery or drain oil for this procedure. I believe it requires an 11mm crescent wrench to remove, but I don't remember. Because of the tight confines, a short wrench is best, so there is enough room to turn the wrench to loosen/tighten.
Once you remove the plastic panel beneath the engine, the replacement procedure takes about 15 minutes.
