W211 2003 E320 cdi oil change

[Bobby Abraham]

Hi I am due to do an oil change on my w211 e320 cdi and I want to change all filters. Could any one give me any pointers on how to complete this task, location of oil, fuel and air filters etc. Any help would be great thanks.

Hi Bobby,
I would use a High quality engine oil such as mobil 1 which meets MB oil standards 229.5.

The oil filter is under the black cap on the front right of engine under the covers.

The Fuel filter is in the middle of the inlet manifold, its a black metal canister type with a shinny top!

Air filter is in the long black plastic air box on the left on the engine. The top unclips all the way round.

I hope this is of some help.

you will need a 5mm allen key to loosen the fuel filter and without the correct pliers you will desetroy the fuel pipe clips, you will need 2 appropriately sized jubilee clips for these. depending on which cdi system your car runs id fill the new fuel filter first, can sometimes be a pain to start otherwise.
