Not sure about the c-class sedans, but the coupe's engine requires 7 liters of oil, whereas this extractor can handle only 6.5 liters... A little inconvenient, having to dump some oil and then repeat the procedure on the remaining oil...

Vadim is right. I need to empty a little off halfway through.

I have the same extractor. Yes, you do have to empty it out twice. However it is really nice and convenient. And the E-class uses about 8.5 quarts with a filter change. I have used it to drain the transmission, and transfer case on my 4X4 Expedition as well. Really nice tool, and well worth the money spent.

Actually Adam, I Have a better setup for bleeding the brakes. I use the high pressure ABS motor to bleed them for me with a jumper wire and the nitrogen gas charge on board. Learned that trick on a XJS. The car has the capability of 300psi self containined. And it bleeds the ABS unit at the same time. Really bleeds them easily, and no pedal pushing involved.
