I4 Emira Turbo/AMG DIY oil changes?

[DigDugLotus]

Who has done their own oil change on the Emira I4 /AMG? If so, can you post your process and experience In doing so? Tons of info on the V6 oil changes…..haven’t seen this on the AMG version.

Anyone out there that has done their own i4 AMG oil change? I know it would be other regions of the world that have had the AMG version……

I've seen some pictures of the i4 underside during a service - everything looks very accessible, but I'm with you I would like to see some information too.

Agree, I think it should be straight forward, but always nice to watch a video on someone doing it before you do one yourself.

Just saw this thread...
Here is some information:

Engine oil, Mercedes 229.71
Mercedes part number A000 989 34 09/11ABAW, in 1 litre bottles. Price does not decrease if you purchase 5 litres in a single container.

Oil Filter :
Mercedes part number A176 180 08 00 (found by Mercedes using my engine number as a reference)

Sump gasket (aluminium seal)
Mercedes part number N007603 014106

Torque settings
Filter housing 25 N.m ( printed on housing, if my memory serves me well)
Sump Plug 40 N.m

Should be possible without removing the rear black diffuser. Note all screwwsare not the same lenght, and the Workshop manual does not give the correct information on screw to be removed.
