Capacities and Oil specifications and in the manual for the car. If you don't have a manual, one can be downloaded online. Here is some info on oils. choose the spec number. https://bevo.mercedes-benz.com/bevolisten/229.5_en.html

You'll need 8 quarts. Full synthetic 10w30 0r 10w40 will be fine, but many other grades will also be good. Mobile 1, MB, Royal Purple, Amsoil, ELF.

You'll need an oil filter too. You'll find the filter on the top, front, driver side of the engine - it's the round black cap. You replace the element only (not a spin on type) and 3 or 4 O-rings.

Always change all the O rings.
