Good video. Only thing I would add is to pour the new oil in the oil filter housing before installing the filter. It's far quicker than the oil filler cap. After all the oil is all going to the same pan!

Thank you very much for clear demonstration of oil change.

Great job! Just love changing the oil on all my vehicles. Haven't done a Merc since my last W124 2 decades ago!!!! Your video is detailed and exact. Kudos for the effort. BTW, what's the recommended oil viscosity for a '14 G550? Isn't it 5W40???

Terrific

I really appreciate your in depth videos for maintenance on W220. Are you working in other videos? I'm wondering if I need a power steering flush or a top up is just fine. Also my W220 shakes when it is idle. I can feel the car shake a litttle. Its not drastic but definitely noticable. Any idea what is going on here?

Great video, very informative and helpful!!! Thanks!! You should make more, you make them well. One question though, after you remove the old oil filter and you remove the o rings, do you have to put them back on with the new filter or get new o rings? Or do you not replace them? I am just a little confused on that part. Thanks!

LMAO, very informative Sarge!

Excellent video very well explained you made oil changes very easy on S 500 (2005) I have my S 500 with 180.000 kilometers runs great , Do you have a front wheel bearing repair video that's only thing I'm having hard time every year. From now on I like to watch all you service videos. I'm having trouble with 2008 BMW 750 LI with transmission cooling lines they're leaking under sub frame 7" rubber hoses I have to reinstall new cooling lines and drain all trans mission fluid which is 10 liters , plus pan and filter all for $ 1,800.75 dollars at BMW dealer . The car has 145.000 kilometers does not revers going forward only in any gear don't know what is the cause , your repair videos will be a great help no one can explain better then you. you are my favorite hero Thanks

Hi Bashirsz Darz! Thank you very much for the kind words. The closest I have to a wheel bearing repair video is a wheel bearing adjustment video. I will make a repair video soon. Regarding your BMW 750. I'm still working on expanding my video library which will include BMWs, so stay tuned for that as well. I hope you get everything fixed. Best of luck to you!

I love these guys that tell you what torque # to use compared to what ever that metric torque was and then they don't tell you what the difference is in something else in the video. Where did he get the Mercedes coveralls? Makes him look smart.

Hi Tommy, We used Larin JS-2 jack stands with a weight capacity of 2 Tons. We're not sure if they are still in production, but O'Reilly Auto Parts sells "flat face" jack stands. The floor jack is a Craftsman aluminum jack with a weight capacity of 2 Tons. You can find this floor jack at Sears.

HI, I have a question regarding the engine oil and transmission, I was wondering if you can flush the transmission, in your video you only drain it unless I missed it. thank you

Hi Ethan, Yes, after you remove the screws take the cover off and set it aside. Then proceed to drain the oil. After you have completed the drain/fill process, torqued the oil drain bolt, and filter replacement you can replace the cover shield.

Hi Timetryp, We recommend torquing all bolts to their proper torque specifications. If it's possible try raising the car higher. You can also try changing the position of the torque wrench. For example, if your wrench handle is vertical in its starting position try starting from a horizontal position.

Thanks! I wondered if you replaced the "O" Rings.

Hi Kerry, We tested the oil wrench on a E350 (W212), fitment was good, however we can't say for sure if it will fit for your engine. We hope this helps.

Have an 06 cls 500 I cant find the dip stick for the oil.do u know where is located from thanks

thank you for the video. is it better to use 0-40w or synthetic blend for s500?

Hey good Job I just got a question: What are these kind of plastic pipes on the underbodyprotection ?? Are the to drain some water or are they to let some air inside the engine bay?? Greetings from Germany

what did u do with the old O rings? did you use new one?

Great Video. My question is after removing the O-Rings do you replace them or just put the filter on? If you did replace them I didn't see it.

nevermind didnt read the comments. you did great!! great teacher you explained that in plane english my 14yr old could have understood it. You should consider teaching. Im subscribing I own a dodge can you teach me how to change tbe oil in that truck ( journey).

Do you fill up the oil filter housing with oil?

You can also use a Mityvac and suck out the old oil through the dipstick tube, much faster/cleaner, but under the car and draining through the oil pan is always best.

Thanks

Hi Kerry Flynn, We recommend the use of Mobile 1 0w-40 European formula. Other companies manufacture their oils a bit differently and using 5w-30 may work, but before you decide to use this weight consult with the oil manufacture to make sure their oil and weight is compatible with your car.

Thanks for the post, it is informative. Are you familiar with AMG engines for the W221 would you? I can look up the parts for it etc, but I wasn't sure if there was any extra steps these engines require outside of what you stated. Example mine has no dipstick because its electronic, which i am not to thrilled about, i cant check the oil color and contamination myself!

Hi Chris H. The procedure is the very similar with the exception of the oil dipstick. Do you have an oil dipstick next to your firewall? If you do, that is your oil dipstick. The other way to monitor oil quality is to keep track of oil change intervals. you can also measure the level of oil in the engine using the cars control system.

Where can I find those pine type jack stands in the Los Angeles, CA area and what is their weight capacity?

hey tommy can you tell me what to do to fix the gas leveler sensor it went out and i cant tell how much gas i have in my s 500 2001 mercedes benz i appriciated someone told me to clean the gas and sulfur from the tank, im trying to figure it out

Hi Raul, It is always recommended to use the correct weight oil for your car. 0w-40 will allow oil to lubricate smaller moving parts more rapidly. Also, try checking the spark plug wires as they tend to come loose and can simulate the lifter noise. Carbon buildup is a possibility as well. There are many options available on the market for treating carbon build up. As always, please consult your automotive professional for more detailed advice.

I have a lifter noise on my s430 would you recommend changing my oil to 0w-40w and could it be carbon build up

Also, where did you get that Mercedes / Vodafone jacket!!? :)

What's the size in mm of this filter oil cap from Amazon?

Where can I find an oil change space coat like that !!!

Hi Raj Samaroo! I do not know the oil change procedure for the Sl 500. I would try asking someone at www.mbworld.org to see if it is the same. Everyone there is very helpful.

You have a point, they do exagerate on some parts, I would say 20% of them are over-engineered. It took me 2 hours to figure how to remove the shift knob on a Mercedes. It's ridiculous, I know what you mean, But I do have to contradict you on the cost of maintanance since most parts last longer and all you have to spend money on is oil , coolant , filters.

Hi Caldoboy, We're mainly focusing on the S500 (W220) we can't say for sure until we physically look at the car. Our best advice for you would be to check out a Mercedes forum as they have a lot of friendly people and information.

Hi Rashaad, Thank you, we will do our best to continue making more videos. For the oil filter housing, please remove the old O-rings and replace them with the O-rings that came with your new oil filter.

What's the reason you remove the O rings and you didn't show whether you put it back on?

Is the procedure to change the oil on a c230 similar to this video?

Hi MrRookie714, Are you referring to the oil service indicator? If so, we have a video on our channel titled "How to reset your 2001 Mercedes-Benz S500 service indicator" That video will show you how to remove the notification. If your oil level is low please make sure there is 8.5 liters of oil in the engine before putting it in use. Also if you are using the oil level check feature, please make sure the car is on level ground.

I Had a question and i hope you can help .... My C240 displays on the dash screen to add 1qt of oil. Should I add more oil or should I take it for an oil change ?

Most of the time on KZread the why is absent especially when it comes to “technical” videos. Remove the o rings, why? Furthermore, are they replaced or put back? The 0w40 is a factor of the weather and the year of the car, to my knowledge cannot be fixed, however, the brand name must be considered for better performance. Anyway, thanks for sharing.

Hello Larry Ashby, Some engines do not come with a dipstick unfortunately. The procedure for checking the oil will be to turn your ignition on to 2nd and toggle through the menu until you see check engine oil level. This must be done 30 minutes after the engine has stopped running and on a level surface. I hope this helps! Cheers!

my 2006 s500 rear is still low .change pum,front strut,rear struts.

which side is the engine drain on?

Is 5w-30 grade ok?

How can you check status of oil without an oil dipstick [just b0ught one but how do you install/out in(?)]? And the dashboard status always says 'check engine oil not when car is on' but it also says that for when while the car is off. Thnx anyone for help is appreciated

Hi Feckdisheeit! You can check the oil level in your dashboard menu using the steering wheel function buttons. Navigate to mileage, then use the selection button to scroll up to "check oil level". You have to perform this test with the car at rest on level ground and also while the engine is off and has not been ran for at least 30 minutes.

what happened to the o-rings? i saw you said take them off

Oscar perez If you purchase the polyester filter (which is recommended for synthetic oil) then it's recommended to service the engine oil every 10,000 miles, assuming you're not driving the car in harsh condidtions, or putting strenuous load on the engine. If you are putting excessive load on the engine then you should change your oil every 3,000 to 5,000 miles.

Krician Damian, The McLaren Racing Team website and Ebay are good places to start. They will have the most up-to-date style of shirts and jackets.

Hi Oscar Perez, It's possible that the brake sensor got damaged (which are cheap and easy to replace), or that it's time to replace the brake pads and the light came on around the time you got the flat. If you haven't tried already, you can reset the workshop notification by holding down the "R" button. For a more detailed diagnosis it would be best to visit a local Mercedes-Benz mechanic.

Oscar perez If your brake pads are squeaking, but your workshop indicator is not on then they are ok. Brakes will squeak sometimes, however the sound of grinding metal on metal is bad and you should have your brakes inspected. If your pads are new and they are squeaking then the noise can be cured with brake grease.

With these kind of oil filters you should remove and change the filter before you drain the oil. Because when unscrewing ist, quite some oil from filter housing drains down into the pan.

Hi RKellyMask, Always use full synthetic 0w-40.
