2019 c43 amg oil filter help
Hello everyone, this is my first post but I’ve been lurking the boards for quite some time.
My b1 service is up (no issues doing work on the car) warranty is over, I wanted everything done at MB but no way I’m paying over $600 for an oil change and air filters lol.
After lurking the boards etc I found the filter for like $18 shipped part# 2761800009 from fcpeuro.com.
Question is, I read there are 2 filters that fit, 1 for the regular C classes which is smaller and the other for the 43 coupe which is larger. The filter just came, it says it’s for C series s/w 204 w/ m276/m278 engine. This page shows then c450/c43 as w205 and c63 as w204. I would think 204 is the larger filter.
can anyone please help confirm I’m good to go with this filter before I climb under (yes I’m stubborn and still insist on draining from the bottom lol)? Thanks so much in advance. No warranty to void and I’m itching to mod so I’ll be posting more soon

Mercedes Engine Oil Filter - Purflux 2761800009 is the filter i have ordered many times over from FCP. Fits both my M276 Dela30 (W205 chasis / C43 motor) and the M276 de35 in the ML (W166).
Im not aware of a larger filter for our cars, where do you see a different part number called out for the M276/W205?

The oil filter is in the engine bay and barely leaves any drops. You can check if the filter fits before doing the oil change.
Even if you did, it's not horrible to change the oil filter after flushing the oil. The oil only goes one way through the filter, from inside to out, so it really doesn't contaminate much as long as your old filter is fine.

the larger filter comment came off a youtube video. Guy says make sure to get the larger filter not the one, the only different part number from has an A in front. This filter says it’s for both. Thanks again in advance. If this is good to go I’m going to throw it in quick.
side note since you were nice enough to help can you advice on a cabin filter and were to get and if there are any diy videos or just notes on how to get to it behind the glove box? Was thinking about k&n air filters too (I’m not modding anything on this.) But if it helps her breathe a little and doesn’t trip any sensors is it worth the $200. From my experience it isn’t really going to do much except be reusable without changing everything, throttle body, headers, exhaust,
