How do you change the oil on a Mercedes Benz 560 SEL?

I know where the oil filter is on the car I'm just not sure how to go about changing the oil itself... I don't know/can't tell where the used oil is supposed to drain out. If anyone can provide a little insight on this for me it would be much appreciated! Thanks!How do you change the oil on a Mercedes Benz 560 SEL?there is a drain plug at the bottom of the oil pan. just raise the car, remove the black plastic cover (belly pan), and remove the drain plug. make sure you have a oil change container for the old oil. make sure the container holds at least 10 liters, because you will get around 8 liters of old oil out. while the oil is draining you can remove the oil filter. remember to replace the oil filter cap o-ring and drain plug washer. they should come with the new oil filter kit. remember drain old oil after car has been warmed up so it drains faster/better.

or you could also buy a oil suction device and suck the old oil out via the dipstick tube. this way is easier, no mess, and no need to get under the car. oil suction device i use is called %26quot;topsider%26quot; and you can find it online, search for %26quot;oil suction topsider%26quot;. good luckHow do you change the oil on a Mercedes Benz 560 SEL?buy a workshop manual trying to do it without instructions could wreck the car, better still let a dealer do it
