Do it your self and why not. the oil rcomemded is Mobil 1 5W 40 or an oil that meets the same 229.1 spec though there are better ones now 229.3.

Buy the filters from MB they are much better than after market

Graves link on your other thread talks about the serpentine belt

Cheapest place in the UK is Costco at around £25 for 4 liters

Shell Helix is now recomended

You can reset the service indicator and the instructions are in your hand book

There may be issues if you claim on mobilo though, through not having FMBSH

Hi Slik_sly

I still have some Shell Helix Diesel Ultra 5w40 if you want some. It's fully synthetic and satisfies the latest MB 229.3 specification. I'm selling it at £3.80 per litre instead of the recommended £13.99 at your local Shell garage.

For further details see my ad in the For Sale section (you will need to log in first).
