Changing oil in SL55 question??
Guys, I was going to change the oil on my car this weekend and was curious how much I had to torque down the drain plugs and the oil filter canister cover? I just don't want to ove rtighten them or not tighten them enough.
Thank you.
Thank you.

I just make sure that they are 'snug', and use common sense as to over tightening. I noticed that you said 'plugs'... so it sounds like you are aware that there are 2 drain plugs..... correct?

Yes Dino, I am aware of the two. Thank you. I guess if there are no real specs on tightening these then I will just use comon sense.
