Re: 2006 slk350 - oil & filter change question

So- did you tackle it your self?
If you took it to a shop, how much did they charge?
Just curious.
Slk's are really fun little cars!
Changing the oil isnt too hard at all. Biggest issue is having the proper filter tool. Removing the lower engine covers are kinda a pain . Also- you have to have the oil cap very clean before you put it back on. The timing chain is right under it and slings oil up against the bottem of it. I have seen a couple leak right after an oil change because of this.
Dont be skeared!!
