I've always done my own oil changes for various cars, which is the same here but man Mercedes should commission you to do all their service videos 😁 Simple, Structured, and to the Point 👌🏾
First of all a big thank you for all these nice videos. I would love to have a garage like yours. You get more oil out by using an extractor and much easier and less hassle. To get all of the oil out the old way, you need to tip the car... Greetings from Norway.
Thanks for the details on jacking the car. I bought an extraction pump and recently did my oil change, it took me 20mins to do all the job and not a drop of oil spilled. I would recommend trying it
Thank you for your recommendation. And yes, I used to using the extraction pump to suck out the oil, but I never replace the recommended volume of oil (8.5 litter) by maintenance booklet. That's why I have given up the extraction pump for changing oil. For draining out I can pour in 8.5 litters volume of fresh oil.
Senior Leigh yeah you don’t get all but most. I have an slk with the m272 with max capacity of 8 lt, I extracted 7 lt, but got the level right in between min and max.
Dear Senior Leigh. Your video instruction are very helpful. For my car is E 250 CDI, 2015 Model. If I follow your E 350 maintenance guidelines, Is that okay? is there anything that I have to be consider the different?
Excellent nice calm video Thank You! What am I doing wrong each time on my wifes M276 E350? When I remove Oil Filter Housing oil goes everywhere and makes a big mess to clean.
Your video gave me the confidence as a women to do my own oil change ❤️ however I didn't understand was going on @ 2:52...can you tell me what was happening
Thank you, and yes, handy is gender-neutral. On 2:52, that’s unscrew the oil drain screw. I have a webpage for changing engine oil of M278, that’s pretty same steps with engine M276. There’s every details you need to know for the job. www.leighsr.com/change-engine-oil-m278
Couple more questions. Were you ever a Mercedes technician?, you're really proficient both mechanically and editing. Do you know the code for the clips on the forward engine beauty cover? I keep pulling up w211 but I don't think those fit.
@@LeighSr ok. I ended up adding the other half and it came to mid way between the min and max 🤷🏾♂️ So is the dipstick wrong is the real question I guess🤦🏾♂️

I had the W210 1998 E320, V6. It was 2 spark plugs per cylinder so I had to get 12 plugs! My mechanic bought it off me 12 years ago. Still running fine!
Thanks Senior Leigh your the best. I need to service my 2012 E300 so I would like to know the best recommended oil to use as its getting close to spring ,what is mercedes recommendation?
@@seeingit9337 Thank you and I recommend Mobil 0w-40, I use it from New York City to Southern California. The 0w-40 fits most of the weather. Here is the link of MB-Approval engine oil: bevo.mercedes-benz.com/bevolisten/229.5_en.html
I own exactly the same vehicle and learned a lot from you. After viewing your video, I actually purchased same tools as yours. If you can, can you show all the tools you are using including the brand name?
Why not use the vacuum method to suck the old oil out of the dip stick tube? That’s 10X faster and cleaner than the convention method of raising the car and letting gravity do the job!
Thanks for your comment. There are two ways to discharge the used oil, extraction, or drain. In the Mercedes-Benz maintenance manual (WIS): For the M278 engine, the used oil is discharged by the extracting unit, in order to improve the work efficiency of the workshop. For the AMG engine M157, the same structure as M278 is required to drain the oil from the oil pan. After comparing the two methods, there can be filled with 8.5 liters of new engine oil as required by the booklet with drain used oil. For extraction of used oil, only 7.5 liters of new engine oil can be filled. I think this is why the M157 engine requires drain used oil from the oil pan. I chose to drain the used oil, even though it will take a little longer.
Best oil change video I have seen on UA-cam!

@@LeighSr must be copper type? (I read is to prevent corrosion)
您好，我的车是m276.957的发动机，之前在benz保养receipt写的都是加的6.5升机油，但是网络上论坛好多人说他们自己换机油加了7.5升还没到max的位置，而且我前两天换了家私人车行保养，用的我自己买的机油，也是加了7.5升机油进去，不过我热车看机油位置高出了max一些。请问根据您的经验，m276系列发动机实际加了多少机油才到max啊？952和957应该差别不大。
奔驰的WIS里写的机油量是6.5升，大约6.9 quarts，如果加了7.5升，就加多了，就像您说的已经超过Max了。这时候，发动机会通过曲轴箱通风管自动排油出来，到集油盒里，集油盒满了就会从一些缝隙里流出来，但会加重节气门的污染。建议还是把多余的机油抽出来。集油盒的位置和拆卸方法请见我的”清洗节气门体“的视频。ua-cam.com/video/6wIcnZGo0I4/v-deo.html
@@LeighSr 谢谢您回复的这么快，我是在新西兰这边，这边的mechanic好像都喜欢冷车启动之后加到MAX，所以我如果热车查看，机油体积膨胀了会高出MAX一部分。请问您视频最后是总共加了6.5升机油后在MIN和MAX中间吗？然后这是奔驰论坛的人在讨论机油，很多人都是说明书写的6.5升，但是实际得加7.5升： www.benzworld.org/threads/engine-oil-capacity-in-m276-952-engine.2819042/
@@percypan4385 不客气！正好在电脑旁边。
在冷车熄火的状态下，加入6升机油，大约是在Max的位置，着车待水温达到80°C的时候，是在Min的位置，此时再加入0.5升机油，大约是在中间的位置，这就是合适的机油量6.5升。我曾经也加入过7.5升机油，结果第二天机油从集油盒上面的缝隙中流出来了，车库地上发现机油，才意识到加多了，赶快抽出来多余的机油，才有现在的经验。Min和Max之间的差异，是1.1升机油。

@@LeighSr 谢谢！我的车是2012年的C350 Coupe，然后我是热车到正常水温80到100之间，然后熄火等待五分钟测量的机油位置 （用户手册推荐的方法），然后测出来是高于MAX大概一厘米左右，就是机油位置还在红色塑料部分，上端红色凸起的中间的样子。但是这两天开起来没有任何异常，跑高速然后加速都很好，也没有看到有机油漏到地上。刚才去了一趟车行他们说高出MAX一厘米完全没有关系，说不用放油出来。我也不清楚到底多少机油合适，之前奔驰中心保养记录写的6.5升收费，实际加了多少我也不知道，这次是自己买的机油有刻度才看得到加了多少。而且论坛里同样的发动机有的也是说需要加比说明书手册更多的机油，搞不懂。
