oil

Hi All, Started the car today and let her run for around 10 minutes and I noticed a puddle of oil directly under the engine bay. I wasn't sure if it was coming from my car or whether it was from a car that parked in the bay before me so I moved to the bay opposite. Kept the engine ticking...

Hi all, not sure whether this should have been in "engine" thread but thought answers would be easier here. Anyway my 55 R172 is now 6 months old with 5k on it now and I asked MB to do the first service now as being from the "old school" I would have liked the oil and filter changed. They say...

E250 2.2 Cdi 2009 Anyone suffered a coolant leak from the oil cooler? Is this a difficult job to replace?

Just got my car back from service and was told there was a slight oil leak. My local mechanic who does my MOT told me the same thing 2 weeks ago so that isn't in question. Have been told its a seal on an engine oil pan. They say the cleaned it off and left the engine running and it didn't come...

I have bought dipstick to check the auto box oil levels clk 320 (yr 2000). When I put it in, it goes in and then hits something "springy" and I can push in a little further. Should I be measuring the level at the top without pushing the extra against the springiness? Thanks

I have a small oil leak (an annoying drip or two each day making a mess of my drive!) my local MB garage (Hertford) tells me it is the inlet manifold that needs replacing. However, the cost quoted at an MB garage doesn't seem worthwhile for the age, 2005. Does anyone know whether there is...

Following a chat with noisy Dave at the meet yesterday it was clear that his (relative) lack of oil consumption was not the same as my regular oil consumption, despite our engines being the same. With this in mind I checked the manual, which is E Class generally, not specifically E63, and...
