When i recently bought my c280 i knew there was a bit of an oil leak coming from the top of the left bank of cylinders so after investigating it was found to be the rocker cover breather plate. Very simple job and don't know why it wasn't spotted before by a merc mechanic. Has been leaking for some time and grime everywhere but got it all off with brake and clutch cleaner fluid. I go through loads off it. Was a real easy job and a pleasure to have completed my first jobs including changing the oil and filter. Don't know how difficult all other jobs will be but i'll worry about them when they come along. Had a B service last time at merc dealer including plugs so wont have to replace them for a few years to come. I'll only be doing about 5k per year. Happy Motoring.
