If you want to perform a service on your Mercedes GLC W253 completely on your own, just follow the steps shown in this video. The most challenging part is definitely draining the oil, and it should be done first.

Lift the car on jack stands, as you likely won't have access to a service lift, and remove the engine cover. Open the oil pan and let the old oil drain into a catch container while you change the engine oil filter and the air filter, both located in the engine compartment.

Proceed by closing the oil pan and reinstalling the engine cover, and finally finish by adding the new engine oil.
