Need Help; Quick '94 E420 Oil Change Question
 
Hey guys............... Can anyone tell me or post a pic or part number of the proper tool I need to get to the engine oil canister on the 1994 E420.
The canister is on passenger side front down alongside of motor. Cant seem to reach and turn it with basic tools i have. Any suggestions/help/part number/etc. Will be first time doing the oil on the m119 motor. THANKS in advance Everyone............

A 3/8 drive flex head ratchet. About an 8 inch extension, and a socket.

It is actually pretty easy from the top.

It's a 13 mm socket. If you have about 18 inches of extension you won't need anything but a regular rachet.

Doesn't help the filter issue. Remeber its an element not a spin on filter. After the bolt is removed pull cap straight up off.
