Title
Mercedes W123 Diesel Oil and Filter Change, Under Car
Introduction
Diesel oil is specially designed to hold diesel soot in suspension within the oil to keep it from clogging oil passages, building up on cylinder walls, etc. If left in the engine for too many miles it will become full of soot and won't be able to suspend it any longer.
For this reason you'll want to change your oil pretty religiously. Some people extend their change intervals to 5,000 miles when using synthetic oil. When using conventional oil it should be changed every 3,000 miles.
Change your filter while you are at it.
As always be careful when handing automotive fluids. Diesel oil, as it is filled with diesel soot, will stain your driveway, your clothes, your skin, and anything else it touches. Wear gloves.
Be sure to also catch the fluid in the proper container and dispose of it properly. Almost every auto parts store will accept used oil and oil filters for proper disposal.
