guys i wanna buy clk but i dont know how much it cost to change the oil and brake.

@TheQatarikid the oil change itself will range from $95 to $125 depending on where you live. Typical oil change is $30 to $50 anyway, the only oil used is Synthetic so if you look at other places that usually runs high in price anyway, but look at it this way, most cars are changed every 3 to 5 thousand miles, MB's are every 10,000 miles so really your paying as if you were getting 2 oil changes done anyway. MB's are just better built cars. Honda is the same way, but they charge $75.

Few questions for u since Im about to buy this exact pump...How does it perform? I mean does it run cold or it gets smoking hot after a couple of mins ?

Is there any fairly decent pressure at the outlet?

I was planning to use this to pump to pump the oil through a special 0.45um filter...

How's the pumping group made? (if by any chance you know it)

I mean it's a diaphram pump or what?

Wow..I am glad to see this video is still getting views years later and people are finding it helpful.

A few things based on the comments:

1. Filter is under the hood (which is why I started it doing it his way in the first place; no need to jack it up)

2. Metal Filings - Maybe in transmission fluid not oil. There is a magnet in the transmission pan to catch filings. I think MB transmission is sealed (have changed on other cars)

3. Got it on e-bay

4. Hint-run car first (warm oil flows better)

useless

That is a great way to do a German oil change. Those that are asking about the filter obviously haven't done a MB oil change. The filter is in plain view about 5 seconds into the video. It’s on the top side.

Also great for motor boats!

Clever concept, but I'd rather change oil the regular way.

[kinsag]

And what about filtres..?!? you will have to open the bottom anyway.

[saintEmory]

WOW!!

Who is the manufacturer of the extractor?

[LarryDavidFreak]

gimmie a break! what a stupid machine, takes a fraction of the time to do it the regular way

[pappaG2000]

@LarryDavidFreak I know this is comment to this Mercedes Benz oil change and that you commented on this a year ago, explaining to change the oil the regular way, Mercedes Benz "Do Not" have a drain plug screw located in its oil pan, therefore required to vacuum the oil out topside. I enjoyed the info here very informative.

I had one of those for my boat until the outlet hose came flying off the pump and it shot oil all over my boat. I got one of the pump ones. Much cleaner, and easier to use. It only takes 10 pumps to create enough vacuum to suck out all the oil.

Much of the micro metal filings reside on the bottom of the oil pan and cannot be extracted with this device. Those filings will be circulated within the engine after an oil change.

@kimchee94112

You sound pretty expertise in this topic. So how would one go about removing these filings on the bottom of the oil pan. Would you just simply unscrew the oil plug and allow to drain?

[garenario]

does this pump get ALL the oil out ?

[Rohmell]

I have the same pump, but I use mine for changing the transmission fluid.
