¿A qué te refieres con anular? ¿Quiere dejarlos completamente abiertos? Si es así, sí puede hacerlo, pero tendrá que desconectar el motor y programarlo para que el EC no pueda volver a controlarlo. O simplemente puede eliminar las mariposas por completo.
Just paid $188 for a oil change to my 2013 ML-350! Problem is I have a 50k mike warranty so I want to be sure I don’t negate it by doing my own oil change. Looks like the manual mandates an oil change every 10k. I’m thinking I’ll do it every other time at the 5k myself. Is there a brand that Mercedes specifies for the oil? And what weight oil?
Yeah I do it every 5K myself as well. If you go into “what type of oil to use” you’ll find yourself very quick in a endless rabbit hole. The fact of the matter is that as long you replace your oil very frequent you shouldn’t be worry about the type/brand at all. The main focus of each oil comes down to “longevity” as in how long can the oil provide lubrication before it brakes down. Doing it every 5K doesn’t even touch the spectrum of bad oil much less the good oils. So, don’t worry about it.
You should remove the oil cap before letting the oil out from underneath. This allows air to flow in and the oil to escape much easier. And I never ever use a pump! I €{£}^~€{‘ hate that pump!
My brother can you help me out please. I did oil change perfect and put the oil filter cap back on with the seal correctly and I notice I tiny tiny drop coming from the oil filter cap... I changed the seal and still !!! You think I need a new oil filter cap ?
Hmm 🤔 does the oil keep coming out? Did you wipe it clean? Maybe there was some extra residual oil that was leaking… If everything was good and it’s still leaking like you said then, yeah, you probably need a new filter cap. Try to get one from the dealership and check if they accept returns, this way you can see if the new filter will leak too and if it does, then you know it’s not the cap and you can return the cap back to the dealership.
@@AlbanianFix yeah before wasn't leaking until I changed the filter and I must of over tighten it. Than started leaking slowly ! So I changed the seal and retighten it and still tiny bit leak coming from the cap. So anyway thank you brother !! I just ordered a cap from FCPEURO for 30 OEM. Dealer wants 70 lol
So many shops refuse to open oil pan drain bolts anymore. All because of overzealous lawyers and customers trying to sue and blame them for lack of maintenance.
@@AlbanianFix yes. They say it's for legal & cost purposes. They're tired of having to pay for new drain bolts and especially oil pans and further problems like leaks which lead to having to replacing whole engines.
I cut a hole in the underbelly pan to reach the oil plug . Been working great for years. They should of put a smaller little panel door or threaded cap under the oil plug. Anything besides taking out the plywood size panel just to reach a 1/2 drain plug

Oh wow I didn't know that. So they'll just use the pump instead?

@@DominiAeternum Oh I see...never thought of it from that aspect. Thanks DominiAeternum !
Why so upset?
