[diesel_mercedes] OM 616 & 617 Oil Drain

 




  Yes Max , they are .

The good part is : the correct tool (box end spanner or socket wrench) is always available and easy to use , the oil doesn't come roaring out to overshoot your drain pan and soak the driveway and piss off SWMBO etc.....

I don't even need to jack up the car to do an oil change .

Just remember every one : BLISTERING HOT , every time .

Who nearly passed out in the Junk Yard Saturday as I was harvesting a different part and looked longingly at a greasy if pristine OM617 oil pan on a dead 1983 300SD.....

One thing that bugs me about my 240's is the size of the drain plug. Are 300's that tiny 13mm plug? on my Subarus its a huge 17mm plug and the oil gushes out very fast. Mercedes way too small for a fast oil drain. max
