Introduction

Your Mercedes AMG GLC 63 is a high-performance luxury SUV that requires regular maintenance to ensure its optimal performance. One essential maintenance task is an oil change. In this guide, we will outline the steps involved in changing the oil in your Mercedes AMG GLC 63.

Step 1: Gather the Required Tools and Materials

• Oil filter
• Oil pan
• Wrench
• Ratchet and socket set
• New oil, meeting the manufacturer's specifications
• Oil filter wrench
• Oil drain plug gasket (if required)
• Disposable gloves

Step 2: Prepare the Vehicle

Park your Mercedes AMG GLC 63 on a level surface and turn off the engine. Engage the parking brake and place wheel chocks behind the rear wheels to prevent any movement. Allow the engine to cool down for a few minutes.

Step 3: Locate and Remove the Oil Drain Plug and Filter

Locate the oil drain plug and oil filter. The drain plug is typically located on the bottom of the engine oil pan, while the oil filter is usually located on the side or front of the engine. Use a wrench to remove the drain plug and let the old oil drain into the oil pan. Then, use an oil filter wrench to remove the old oil filter.

Step 4: Install the New Oil Filter

Apply a small amount of new oil to the rubber gasket on the new oil filter. Screw on the new oil filter by hand until it is snug. Avoid over-tightening as it can cause damage during future removal.

Step 5: Replace the Drain Plug

Once the old oil has drained completely, reinstall the drain plug. Ensure that the drain plug gasket is in good condition or replace it with a new one if necessary. Tighten the drain plug with a wrench to the manufacturer's specifications, usually about 25-30 lb-ft.

Step 6: Fill the Engine with New Oil

Locate the oil cap on top of the engine and remove it. Using a funnel, pour the recommended amount of new oil into the engine. Refer to your owner's manual or consult a professional for the specific oil type and quantity required by your Mercedes AMG GLC 63.

Step 7: Check the Oil Level

Once you have filled the engine with new oil, replace the oil cap. Start the engine and let it run for a few minutes. Then, turn it off and wait for a couple of minutes. Use the dipstick to check the oil level. It should be within the appropriate range on the dipstick. If needed, add more oil until the level is correct.

Step 8: Properly Dispose of the Old Oil

Ensure proper disposal of the old oil. Take it to a recycling center or an auto parts store that accepts used oil for recycling. Do not pour it down the drain or throw it away in the trash.

Conclusion

Regular oil changes are crucial for maintaining the performance and longevity of your Mercedes AMG GLC 63. By following this oil change guide, you can ensure that your luxury SUV continues to perform at its best. If you are unsure or uncomfortable performing the oil change yourself, it is recommended to seek professional assistance.
