I extracted 147 ml from mine without leveling it. The trick is to put a piece of wire inside the tubing and bending it so you can "vacuum" the oil out from all the lowest areas. Btw, the appropriate oil to use is Mobil Jet Oil II. The supercharger spins at 23,000 rpm so I wouldn't risk using anything else.
I know this comment is 10 months old but I use a bit of grease to keep the plug on the allen wrench.. just enough to stick it on there. Clean with break clean after 👍🏻
Thank you for this video! I got few questions: 1) Should you extract 150ml of old oil before putting back 150ml of a new oil? 2) I wonder how much oil could be held there before it starts overflowing? 3) Did you apply some kind of high temp thread sealant or high temp tape on that plug before putting it back?
mr_mendacity since there is no combustion In the supercharger it lasts longer than regular engine oil, so I’d say when ever you want because Mercedes claimed it never needed to be changed In the first place but it’s just a peace of mind In doing it.

Comes factory with Teflon. You should be able to manage that 👍
How do you know when the oil needs to be changed?

From the differential so the supercharger is leveled
