Does the Mercedes-Benz C260 Need to Warm Up?
1 Answers
The Mercedes-Benz C260 needs to warm up, and you should drive slowly at the beginning. The purpose of warming up the car before starting: The engine requires lubrication when operating, and the lubricating effect of the engine oil is optimal only when it reaches a certain temperature. Starting the car when it's cold, or even accelerating aggressively, will increase engine wear, which over time will affect the engine's lifespan. The correct method for warming up a car: After starting the engine, wait for 30 seconds to 1 minute before driving, but avoid high-speed driving at this time. Maintain a low speed with the engine speed not exceeding 3000 to 3500 RPM, generally keeping it around 2000 RPM. Otherwise, the severe wear on the engine and transmission could be irreversible.
