Where is the oil filter located on the Mercedes-Benz B200?
2 Answers
The oil filter on the Mercedes-Benz B200 is located next to the right front shock absorber, at the front right of the engine. The oil filter is one of the vehicle's wearable parts and needs to be replaced every time the engine oil is changed. If the oil filter is not replaced, the effect of changing the engine oil will be minimal. The Mercedes-Benz B200 is equipped with an ABS anti-lock braking system, ESP electronic stability program, BAS brake assist system, and full-size driver and passenger airbags, providing strong safety protection for occupants. In terms of power, the Mercedes-Benz B200 is equipped with a 2.0-liter inline four-cylinder engine paired with a CVT transmission, delivering a maximum power of 100 kW and a maximum torque of 185 Nm.
I just finished repairing a friend's Mercedes-Benz B200. Its oil filter is usually located at the lower right side of the engine, near the oil pan area. To get a full view, you'll need to lift the car. Normally, if you just peek into the engine bay, you can only vaguely sense its position, but for actual operation, a professional lift is necessary—otherwise, you can't reach it properly and risk injury. When replacing it, it's best to wait until the engine cools down to avoid the danger of hot oil spraying out. Remember to use the correct-sized wrench to loosen the old filter, apply a layer of fresh oil to the new seal ring before installing the new part to prevent leaks, and finally check for any seepage. Regular oil and filter changes are crucial for engine protection, especially for precision vehicles like Mercedes-Benz. Don't skimp on cost or effort—I've seen too many owners delay maintenance, leading to accelerated engine wear.
