If you're planning to change your oil on the 200 CDI, it should be a breeze.
The oil filter should be right at the top of the engine.
The black domed plastic cap, at left of center is where your filter is.

It should say to torque to 25 Nm on the cap.(the non diesel says to, and they look the same) Remember it's all plastic and 25 Nm is only 18 ft/lbs.
Drain the oil from the bottom drain plug.
The diesel is easier than the B200, because the non-diesel is located down behind the top of the engine and tricky to get at. Doc: 19.05.04 shows the diesel filter cap as # 1(Keith).
I've changed my oil a couple of times and it is easy to do!!
Hope this is of help and if you need more help please use your decoder rings that I've supplied!!
