Since owning my car I've always taken it to a M-B indie for an oil change, which was nothing more than a new oil filter and oil for around $40. Depending on which tech does the service, coolant, windshield, tranny fluids are checked and levled if needed. I'v ebeen thinking about doing my own oil change lately seeing that it looks simple. The oil filter looks to be easily accessible, but I have no idea as removing it and putting a new one in. How easy is that? Also, as far as draining the oil is concerned, how easy is it to loosen the drain plug and all that other stuff? I know I have to remove the belly pan, and I have done that before. Believe it or not I was able to do that despite the low clearance. Will I have room to reach the drain plug? Is this an easy job? I'm more concerned with access. What parts will I need? Thanks.
