Sorry, I don't own your year and make car, but I can tell you this much. In your owner's manual (you DO have an owner's manual, don't you?), it will tell you the exact amount of oil your engine holds w/new filter. You can use Mobil 1 fully synthetic and the weight of your choice, usually something like 10-30, 10-40, 0-30, whatever. The oil filter will be inside a small black "canister" under the hood of your car. The top will unscrew and then you will pull the top off along with the filter. It will slide off the black plastic "stem" it's on. Replace the O-rings that come with the filter. You can buy the filters online and they are less $$$ than other places. It's either a Mann or a Hengst. You will probably have to lower the body pans underneath the car to access the drain plug. Mercedes does it with a suction hose from the top of the engine, never pulling the plug or touching the belly pans. Just get the car up in the air on jack stands and undo the little screws holding the plastic pans. Do that first, then take the top of the filter canister off and let it all drain. You can use the old gasket on the drain plug if you don't want to buy a new one. Mine works after many oil changes. It's copper and small, so don't lose it in the drain pan! PS>put a little fresh oil on the new O-rings when you reinstall them. It helps the cap go back on too.
