So you heat the car up to let it cool down?,Also by starting the engine your throwing all the oil in the pan around the whole engine,,so now the old dirty oil you want out is up in the engine,,It will now take 24 hours for all the oil to drip back down to the pan,,,A better suggestion is,,,don't start the engine don't heat up the oil,,there is no need to,,just leave the car sit for 24 hours,,then open sump let oil out,,this way you get 100 percent of the old oil out..
That is incorrect, you want the oil warm to it flows more quickly, allowing for more debris to flow out. It does not take 24 hours for the oil to drip back down. Also, you'll never get 100% of the oil out of the engine, so it won't really matter if some is left back.
Glad I found you here. I'm a decent DIY tech and I really want the AMG GT. It seems like a manageable semi-exotic car. When they're a few years old, they are a bargain, and always with low miles. I just want to make sure I can do basic work like fluid changes, brake pad/rotor changes and maybe some suspension work.
Yes the blue bottle is approved, it just a different colour in certain countries. www.liqui-moly.com/en/ca/synthoil-energy-a40-sae-0w-40-p003265.html#2049
Hello, But if the my car has 65,000 miles on it, can I also use 0w40? I live in Los Angeles, can I also use it for weather conditions? I don’t know why, but I think that the best option will be, but in my weather conditions and the mileage of the car, I can use this oil or not?
Very informative video do you do all your cars maintenance at home ? I plan on getting a performance model Mercedes currently have the 2018 c300 4matic with amg package got it for 55k and I have maintenanced it through the dealership it’s entire life cycle currently have 73k miles on it and I want more power don’t know if it’s time to pull the trigger.
I do anything not covered under warranty. Once warranty expires, I'll normally do the work myself and just buy the parts either from Ebay, or directly from the dealership. Thanks for watching, make sure to subscribe for when I upload more stuff, I have a hit Porsche Carrera GTS im fixing up.
Not a bad video but you made a few mistakes your suppose to warm the oil up to 100c and you have 3 minutes max to drain the oil. You should have used a fat pipe to catch all that oil rather than let it go everywhere.
@@AnthonyTaylor I guess if you like slow cars that cost a shit ton to maintain. Some people just like antiquated technology I guess. Maybe you still walk around with your Discman 😂😂😂 Cheers!
Lol I can’t wait until you have to replace a battery pack in the electric car you down own. Try and maintain that lol Enjoy your limited range cheers!!
= a real amateur. Also Amsoil should have been used instead of Liqui Moly. Amsoil beats all the properties of LM. It's also recommended to clean up the spilled oil with a brake cleaner to avoid dirt contamination.
@@AnthonyTaylor C400 is twin turbo V6 lol I have a C400 and use the exact same filter as you same part number everything, it's essentially the same exact engine just detuned.
What kind of lift is that you're using? Looks perfect, I'm about to do my own first oil change this week but for now I'm just going to use a jack to lift from the front passenger side.
@@AnthonyTaylor thanks I'll look into it. I'm going to be doing as much maintenance as I can on my own going forward. No warranty so no need to take to the dealership.
are oil changes the only thing you do to your car regarding maintenance ? i just wanna know how difficult it is to work on before i decide. i rather work on my own car vs dealership
