Im going to to do a tune up this weekend and need to raise the car for the oil change. I was wondering where the jacking points are for my c280. Pics would be appreciated.

the rubber mounts below the rocker panels are the lifting points.
you can also use the frame to lift the car, depending on work you will be doing on it. just for the oil change, use the rubber mounts.

There should be pics of where the points are in the owners manual (just in case no one shows pics before you oil change). As far as I remember anyway.

If there arent, I remember I didnt use the stupid OEM jack for lifting my old W202, so I found the proper parts on the frame. Look underneath where you would stick a jack stand on frame, and look for the part where its a little indented. Those indented area are suppossed to be for jack-on-frame jacks.
