How many liters of engine oil does the Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG require?

Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG requires approximately 4.0-4.5 liters of engine oil. Effects of overfilling engine oil: Overfilling engine oil can affect the operation of the catalytic converter, and the high oil pressure may cause damage to the seals. Additionally, it leads to excessive agitation of the crankshaft and connecting rod big end during engine operation, increasing internal power loss and causing more oil to splash onto the cylinder walls, resulting in oil burning and exhaust smoke. Functions of engine oil: The engine is the heart of a car, containing many metal surfaces that move against each other at high speeds under harsh conditions, with operating temperatures ranging from 400 to 600 degrees Celsius. Only qualified lubricating oil can reduce wear on engine components and extend their service life under such severe working conditions.
My 2016 C63 AMG requires 7.7 liters of oil for an oil change, as clearly stated in the manual. AMG cars do consume more engine oil, after all, it's a 4.0L twin-turbo V8 with a big appetite. Last time at the specialist workshop, the technician specifically reminded me that using low-ash oil of the wrong specification could cause GPF clogging. Now I strictly follow the 229.51 standard using 0W-40 full synthetic oil. Pouring in a whole case of oil does hurt the wallet, but it's still better than having to overhaul the engine.
