How to Change the Oil in a Mercedes E-Class

Model: Mercedes Classe E W212 - Years 2009-2016
Part: Engine oil

Want to change the engine oil in a Mercedes E-Class? It's not too complicated; let's see how to do it. Lift the car on a column lift or jack. Remove the bolts securing the cover panel, then use a socket wrench to remove the oil pan bolt (let the fluid drain into a container). Bring the car back to the ground and lift the hood. Remove the cover panel, then unscrew the oil filter located in the container; replace it with a new one. Add the new oil to the engine of the Mercedes. After maintenance, all that's left is to reinstall the engine cover panel.
