Oil change info needed
CAn someone provide a link to an oil change writeup for my CLK55?
Did the search, but came up empty.
Do I need to syphon, or can I drain, etc..etc..
I do all my changes myself on other cars, but the benz seems to be a different beast.
Any info appreciated.

Greg's DIY is on the money. Some of us use a siphon (the original drain plug has never been removed from my car). I would highly recommend that you use a fleece filter (cheap filters aren't designed to last as long as the oil change interval) and approved oil.
Of course, some say any oil and filter combination will do - to each their own.

got er done
Just need to put the plastic bottom pan back on in the morning.
Two drain plugs were different for sure. One in front and one in back.
Not a whole lot of room under there.
Good for another ten k miles. Now I need to reset the interval computer.
Will take a look in the am.
