LoudBimmer Posted March 23, 2014 Report Share Posted March 23, 2014 That's what chased me away from the Mercedes too. Plus each dealer charges their own fee for a service a or a service b plan. There was no way to factor that in. The price I posted is from other forums (so other states prices) Local dealer I believe charges even more.

lifted_silverado Posted March 23, 2014 Report Share Posted March 23, 2014 My mom bought a benz glk 350 and the oil change on it was $225 just for the oil change. I climbed under there with my dad(im an engineer on multiple million dollar marine diesel engines) and couldnt even risk messing with it lol. Everythings in the attic or garage since the truck was sold last year. New build should be coming soon in a dodge cummins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoudBimmer Posted March 23, 2014 Report Share Posted March 23, 2014 If i'm not mistaking, you need to pump the oil out and then add the fresh one thought the same top opening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OrzechNJ Posted March 23, 2014 Report Share Posted March 23, 2014 If i'm not mistaking, you need to pump the oil out and then add the fresh one thought the same top opening. u want to drain it from the bottom.. pumps are not save if ur engine is to warm and it wont get 100% of old oil for sure.. sometimes Loud is NOT pretty Sounds like its safe to go ahead and bend that ass over.

OrzechNJ Posted March 23, 2014 Report Share Posted March 23, 2014 Ive changed the oil once in my BMW since I own it.. its even easier than it was in my accord lol.. the oil filter is located right under the hood and I dont even need to lift the car to drain the oil (right next to driver side headlight) sometimes Loud is NOT pretty Sounds like its safe to go ahead and bend that ass over.
