Read the oil and filter change article at this website and with that said, anybody have part numbers and sources for the correct Oil Filter Housing cover removal tool for a 2000 S500?

For the application in the article, a HAZET 2169 or Mercedes 103 589 00 09 00 is called out. But I don't know if those will be the correct numbers for mine. I checked out a couple of specialty tool websites and found lots of different sizes, etc.

1986 280GE LWB Anthracite (Sold it and kinda wish I hadn't)

Either of those tools will work.

Hi JR
The one you want would be the same for the spin-on filters like the M103 and 85 and newer M102 (the 102 when they got the spin-on filters), and the M104.

There is a BMW filter tool that I find easier to use than the MB one, it's used for BMW "K bikes". It's a little nicer because it has the 3/8" square drive hole in the center, the MB tool doesn't, you have to use an socket to use it. But if you're already set up to do the M102/103/104, you are ready to go.

Gilly

THANKS ALL!!!!
