How many liters of engine oil does the Mercedes-Benz E300 require?
1 Answers
Mercedes-Benz E300 requires 7 liters of engine oil. The new Mercedes-Benz E300 uses engine oil with the specification 5W40. If you want to change the engine oil during later maintenance, you can choose Shell, Castrol, Great Wall, Tongyi, or Tianshan engine oils. The viscosity of engine oil changes with temperature, so special attention must be paid to its performance under low and high temperatures. For example, in 5W-30, the first number indicates low-temperature fluidity. 5W means it can withstand temperatures as low as -30°C. The smaller this number, the better the low-temperature fluidity, and the smoother the cold start of the car will be. The latter number represents the kinematic viscosity of the oil at 100°C. The higher the number, the better it maintains viscosity at high temperatures, which can also be understood as better lubrication performance under high temperatures. The method for changing the engine oil in a Mercedes-Benz E300 is as follows: Wait for the engine temperature to drop, and also allow the oil to flow back into the oil pan; Use a wrench to loosen the oil drain plug and place an oil pan to catch the old oil until no more oil flows out. Start the engine and let it run for 30 seconds to allow the oil in the main oil passage to drain out; Use a special wrench to remove the oil filter; Apply engine oil to the oil seal of the new oil filter and tighten it clockwise by hand; Add new engine oil through the oil filler cap on the engine valve cover. Generally, pour about three-quarters of a standard oil bottle; Start the engine and let it run for 5 minutes. Check for any oil leaks around the oil drain plug and oil filter. If there are leaks, perform necessary repairs; After stopping the engine, pull out the oil dipstick and check that the engine oil level is within the standard range.
