On a 1992 600SEL it takes 15 minutes to R&R the oil filter including removing the Air Filter Box, MAF and finding the Mercedes oil filter wrench/socket.
Changed plugs today - 30 minutes. Back is screaming in pain from being bent over the motor. I KNOW that isn't on my list of rehab exercises from the doctor. As long as I can stand straight by the time the wife gets home from work I'm golden. Changed the transmission filter last week. That took two hours. An hour longer than normal. Got stuck on the ground and couldn't get up.
