Instructions:

before you start changing the oil bring the AMG engine to operating temperature
in neutral step on the gas in order to achieve the optimal oil temperature
it's over 100 degrees
before you turn off the engine let it run for at least 30 seconds in neutral driving program C
then raise the vehicle
to show you better we remove the underbody paneling however you don't need to as all components can be reached
for the next steps be sure to wear the appropriate protective clothing
the time starts now because after you turn off the engine you have a maximum of three minutes to drain the engine oil a helpful tool for a clean drain is a commercially available metal pipe
once it's mounted remove the drain plug on the oil tank
after about five minutes the oil has drained out you can install a new unused drain plug
remove visible oil residue before inserting the plug
next tighten the plug firmly to the lateral stop
with brake cleaner now remove all remaining oil residue
the plug must be absolutely watertight therefore at the end carry out a leak test by doing a visual
inspection continue with the oil pan
remove the drain plug with the sealing ring and let out the engine oil
replace the used ceiling ring with a new one
tighten the drain plug with the correct torque
then clean the area
now the oil filter is removed
undo the screw lid so that the oil from the filter and housing can drain out
replace the oil filter with a new unused filter
remove the oil filter from the cover and replace the sealing ring
bring on the new ceiling ring and fit the new oil filter into the screw cap
then install the new filter
and tighten it with the correct torque
here pay attention to the fact that no oil residue remains and clean the housing
the AMG GT is now ready for new engine oil
lower the vehicle and pour in fresh oil
make sure that no oil residue gets into the engine compartment or remains there
once the container is filled measure the oil level
again let the engine warm up
once the ignition is off you have two minutes to check the oil level with a dipstick in the container and correct
pull out the dipstick and wipe it with a lint free cloth
once you've inserted the dipstick once again the oil level should be between the maximum and minimum marking
here everything is okay
as a leak check a visual inspection of the bottom of the vehicle should be carried out at the end in our case the oil filter change has been successfully completed
the Mercedes-AMG GT is ready for the race track.
