w204 engine oil filter

hey guys,
what type of oil filter do you use? just oem stock oil filter?
what type of engine oil do you use? motul 300v 5w30 or 5w40? or aral? castrol?

and also, does anyone know where the oil filter is located on c200 cgi?
i'm guessing under the intake that goes from engine to air filter, correct?

thanks,

I use Mann Filter and Mobil 1 0W-40. The oil filter is right in front of the engine. It has a round black cover

Are you still under warranty? If so, you need to use oil that meets MB 229.5 spec. I don't think 300V power 5w-40 does. If you want to stick with Motul, they recommend their 8100 X-cess 5W-40 for your engine.
