Oil Filter Wrench

Alright, I've tried just about everything and can't find one to fit over the big hex nut thats molded onto the oil filter cap.

I've tried 76mm "A" and "B" Style Filter Wrench with 14 flutes.

Neither of them worked, can anyone link me to something that works?

Instead of the oil filter wrench can I just use a 32/33mm hex-socket?

I bought one from the dealership for my C320. Doesn't Mercedes use the same size on all of it's cars? I tried using the ones from the auto stores (PepBoys) and they don't work very well, if at all.

I used a 32mm 1/2 inch drive socket and a 1/2 inch breaker bar on the oil filter housing when I did my break-in oil change. It worked great!

+1, I also used a 32 mm 1/2 inch drive socket to replace my filter and it worked like a charm.

All you need is cheap socket from any home depot, be careful DO NOT over tight the oil filter housing cap.

I ordered mine online, its the OEM one. Probably the best option.
