oil change
I didn't get a manual with my 2001 E55 AMG. I just changed the oil with Mann filter and Mobil 1 synthetic. How long can I go til I change it again. Probably 50/50 city driving and road trips (lots of quick acceleration and some 90- 100 mph).

You can download a copy of your manual here:

Look for info on FSS (Flexible Service System). When properly reset it will tell you when to change the oil based on your driving habits. I assume that you used a Mann HU718/5X polyester media filter and Mobil 1 0W-40 European Car Formula (229.3/229.5 MB Approved).
You should get around 10K or more unless you drive less than 10K per year. Then change each year. The FSS will update itself and can be called up to see how long to next service.
