Very good. Good descriptions. Thank you.

Excellent!!! Thanks for tips.

Very helpful. Thank you!

Oil extractor pump: 2 comments: The Mercedes shop in The Woodlands, TX used one on my GLC. I did one in-house oil change. I did the rest of the oil changes myself. One test, I used the pump extractor. Then I went to the drain plug. I think it as less than an ounce of oil that was left behind.

Excellent video! Thank you sir!!

you are a good teacher bro!!

I changed my oil by myself 1st time for any car, literally followed these instructions to the tee & finished in a hr. The 27mm screw for the oil filter gave me little problem and opening the hood oil cap while draining helps. Great video👌

Very good job👍🏻

Bro did you spin the 13mm drain bolt owards the engine bay or the trunk? Right is tight left is Loose but is being a sucker

Nice vid👍 if you can find the Mann filter cheaper, go for it. It’s exactly the same thing in the box.

What is the model year? C300 2019 facelift has new engine M264 (vs M274 before facelift)

good video, but consider using a oil extractor pump (quite cheap online next time via dipstick instead of removing the sump bolt, its quicker and cleaner :)

@@TheDurbinCompound no lie I was almost thinking I was draining my transmission due to the unexpected shape my C300 differs from your sump pan I was shocked cause I was looking for the same shape as yours I'm assuming maybe Mercedes uses what's on hand vs engine? 😅 or is that why your C300 is a W205 and mine is not? I just know mine was made in Alabama lmao

Thinking about buying one soon I needed this vid.. by the way where did you get your torque wrench from..

Say hypothetically, When you do your own Service A or B but later have a possible issue down the road that say is covered under warranty through the dealer, will they honor the warranty still or give you crap and void it since you did your own service prior?? Thanks!

I have had no issue with this. I provide more thorough records than the dealer does. The notes on a service record at the dealer are vague and sometimes just leave out important information.

Hey I over tighten the drain plug and cracked the oil pan a bit and now is leaking oil. You know if it’s too hard to replace the pan at home?

I think it’s a 15mm. I could be wrong. The plug is long, you unscrew it a ways. The stream of oil will shoot out far toward the driver side so be ready.

How do you jack it up from the front end to Insert jack stands on the sides ? I can’t seem to find the jack point

@TheDurbinCompound

It is actually 2 little bumper pads on the rocker that are maybe 2.5” apart. My jack spans it just fine with the cup. They make the inserts as well that have a large pad on them. I have never invested in them though

Hope you are not relying on two hydraulic jacks to hold up the car, don't you have jack stands?.

Extracting equates to taking a shower and putting your old underware back on.

I think the service manual says 25Nm then loosen a 1/4 of a turn and then torque to 30Nm. I think it is to make sure the cap o-ring is properly seated. Who knows, that’s the only thing that makes sense
