Changing oil and filter question?
As you can tell i am a newbie. I am looking to buy a 1998 ML 320 with 75k miles and want to service it my self. i was wondering what oil weight to use (Prefferably Mobil 1)? How many quarts does it consume. It isnt coming with a owners manual so i have no idea what the specs are. Also how do i reset the service reminder on the instrument cluster?thanks

Welcome to the forums. The ML320 uses 8 quarts of oil, preferably Mobil 1 synthetic. To reset the FSS, follow this procedure. With the engine off and key on, double click the trip odometer knob on the cluster and hold knob down (click-hold). While holding knob down, turn the key off and quickly back on, still leaving the engine off. After approx. 10 secs, the display will read 10000 miles to next service.
