Subject: [R129 SL] Oil Change Question
 
I just got my "new" '92 600SL.  I am a longtime Mercedes owner and have
usually done my routine maintenance.  I need an oil change and I have
the filter and can SEE the filter housing.  What is the right way to get
to the filter?  Are there any tricks to the underpinnings to get to the
oil plug in the pan?  Anyone know of a good source for a manual for
routine maintenance.  My MB dealer says they sell a CD for repairs for
$130.  Anyone have any experience with this kind of CD ?
Thanks,
Mike in Morgantown, PA
