How many liters of engine oil should be added to a Mercedes-Benz C200?
1 Answers
The Mercedes-Benz C200 requires 6 to 7 liters of engine oil, with the optimal oil level being between the upper and lower marks on the dipstick. The choice of engine oil should be based on the engine's requirements. It is unnecessary to use high-grade oil in engines with lower requirements, nor should lower-grade oil be used in engines with higher demands. Below is some relevant information about engine oil: 1. Engine oil is referred to as the lifeblood of the engine. Without oil, the engine cannot operate. During operation, the oil forms a thin film on the surfaces of various engine components, preventing direct contact and friction between them. In fact, engine oil not only lubricates but also cleans, seals, cushions, prevents rust, and dissipates heat. 2. Over time, the performance of engine oil degrades, necessitating regular replacement. Prolonged intervals between oil changes can accelerate engine wear. It is recommended to change the engine oil regularly during routine vehicle use and to replace the oil filter with every oil change.
