Use oem filter. Oil you could get mobil1, motul, amsoil, Pennzoil, liqui moly, etc. That meets mb approval 229.5

Use MB compliant oil as noted above.

I bottom drain, it’s easy and gets all the oil out.

I use the cheapest store brand oil filter I can find in a Porsche and get excellent Blackstone results on 5k-6k mile oil change intervals.

Change the oil every 5k-6k miles.

If it is copper, you could probably reuse it once, if plastic, just replace it. If you are worried, replace it regardless of copper or plastic.

When I’m doing work to the car myself I get all the parts from FCP Euro. Go online and make an account with your car info and it should pop up everything you need. If you need help you can call and they will help you choose the parts.

I just did a oil change at 55k miles with OE parts and liqui Molly Oil (some ppl are very pressed about what oil you use, as long as it’s from a reputable brand and you change your oil frequently and on time you should be ok). Remember to get a new metal gasket for the oil drain plug!!

Also just used them to get OEM brakes (rotors and pads) all around. Parts came super fast and everything they sell somehow has a lifetime warranty (that they will honor!).
