E250 oil change
I'm trying to decide whether to do my own service like I have on every prior car I have owned or whether to let MB do it.
I put the car up on blocks to have a peak underneath, but couldn't find the drain plug given all the plastic covers underneath.
Where is the drain plug located?

Search "oil change" in these forums ... I purchased a hand vaccuum pump on amazon .. It sucks the oil out from where the oil dipstick is located ... No need to get under the car .

It's very probably easily found once the plastic cover is removed.And BTW...I'd encourage you to at least let MB do every other service while it's under warranty.That is 20,000 miles...40,000 miles.And keep the sales slips for the oil and filters you install.And make sure the oil is rated as 229.51 (specifically designed for diesels).
