The Mercedes-Benz GLA200 requires approximately 6.5 liters of engine oil. Below is an introduction to the oil change cycle and considerations for selecting engine oil. Oil Change Cycle: The oil change cycle varies depending on the engine model of the vehicle. In fact, car maintenance is also determined based on the oil change cycle. The change cycle for full synthetic oil is 10,000 kilometers, for semi-synthetic oil it is 8,000 kilometers, and for mineral oil it is 5,000 kilometers. Considerations for Selecting Engine Oil: The choice of engine oil should be based on the requirements of the engine, selecting oil that matches the engine. Multi-grade oil should be chosen as it offers advantages such as fuel efficiency, long service life, and high performance, providing better protection for the engine. The oil level should be slightly below the mark on the dipstick and should not be overfilled.

I've been driving a Mercedes-Benz GLA200 for several years, and each oil change requires approximately 6.3 liters of oil. This amount is based on the official manual, and my car is equipped with the M282 engine model. During the actual oil change, the mechanic first drains the old oil and then adds new oil up to the marked level. It's advisable not to attempt adding oil yourself, as mistakes can easily occur: adding too little can cause wear on engine components, while adding too much may lead to excessive oil pressure and leaks. I also prefer using full synthetic oil, as recommended by Mercedes-Benz, with a viscosity of 0W-20, which helps save fuel and protects the engine. The optimal interval for oil changes is between 8,000 to 10,000 kilometers, and don't forget to replace the oil filter. Regularly checking the oil dipstick is a basic maintenance task—ensure the car is parked on level ground and the engine is warm before checking, making sure the oil level is between the min and max marks. This practice ensures smooth driving and extends the vehicle's lifespan.

Is it necessary to return to neutral gear when shifting in Subject 3?

Subject 3 requires returning to neutral gear when shifting. Below is a detailed introduction to the Subject 3 examination: 1. Overview: Subject 3, which includes the road driving skills test and the safety and civilized driving knowledge test, is part of the motor vehicle driver's license assessment. It is the abbreviation for the road driving skills and safety and civilized driving knowledge test subjects in the motor vehicle driver's examination. The content of the road driving skills test varies depending on the type of vehicle being licensed. 2. Examination content: The road driving skills test for Subject 3 generally includes: preparation for getting on the vehicle, simulated lighting test, starting, driving in a straight line, shifting gears up and down, changing lanes, pulling over to the side, driving straight through intersections, turning left at intersections, turning right at intersections, passing through pedestrian crossings, passing through school zones, passing through bus stops, meeting other vehicles, etc.

Do I need to watch traffic lights when making a U-turn in Subject 3?

1、U-turn and traffic lights: A: If the side of the road center near your driving lane is a dashed line, you don't need to consider the traffic light and can make a U-turn directly. B: If the side of the road center near your lane is a solid line/there is a divider, you need to wait for the green light before crossing the stop line to make a U-turn. 2、U-turn in the innermost straight lane: A: If the innermost lane is a straight lane and the center line of the road is a double solid line, then left turns are absolutely prohibited here, and U-turns are not allowed. B: If the innermost lane is a straight lane, but the side of the center line near your lane is a dashed line, then you can make a U-turn at any time. 3、U-turn in the outermost left-turn lane: In some intersections in real life, due to certain reasons, the outermost lane is set as a left-turn lane. When the left-turn light is on, you can make a U-turn.

How many points are deducted for failing to start the engine in Subject 3 of the driving test?

The "Motor Vehicle Driver Training Teaching and Examination Syllabus" stipulates that stalling the engine once due to improper operation in Subject 3 results in a deduction of 10 points. If these 10 points are deducted, it means no further mistakes leading to point deductions are allowed in the subsequent procedures. If points have already been deducted before stalling, this stalling will result in failing the examination. After stalling, to start again: press the brake pedal, slowly release the clutch until you feel the car body shaking, as if an arrow is about to be released from the bowstring, then slowly release the brake while keeping the clutch steady with the left foot. When releasing the brake, the car should move forward instead of rolling backward. The intensity of the car body shaking is something you need to feel during practice. Releasing the brake too early may result in insufficient force, causing the car to roll backward, while not releasing the brake when the shaking is very intense may easily lead to stalling.

Is it necessary to install an engine guard plate for a new car?

It is necessary to install an engine guard plate. Here are the relevant introductions about the engine guard plate: 1. Keep the engine compartment clean: During the operation of the car, it is inevitable to pass through some places with a lot of dust. After installing the engine guard plate, it can prevent road water and dust from entering the engine compartment, keeping the engine compartment clean. It will also be relatively simple to clean without producing excessive oil sludge. 2. Extend the service life of the engine: When the car is driving at high speed, it may roll up sand and stones, which have a relatively large impact on the engine. Over time, it will affect the engine, easily causing engine failure and affecting the service life of the engine. 3. Avoid scratches on the engine: When driving on some uneven roads, there may be a phenomenon of dragging the bottom. After dragging the bottom, it will cause scratches on the car engine. With the engine guard plate, scratches on the engine can be avoided, and the engine can be better protected. If the engine guard plate is damaged, it can be directly replaced. If the engine fails due to dragging the bottom, the maintenance cost may be relatively high.

Will points be deducted for incorrect steering wheel posture in Subject 3?

Points will be deducted. The following postures will result in point deductions: 1. Looking down at the gear shift: If the student is unfamiliar with the gear positions and instinctively looks down while shifting gears, even for just 0.1 seconds, the system will detect it and report "incorrect driving posture." 2. Shifting gears too quickly: The computer scoring program for Subject 3 is connected to various sensors in the vehicle. The scoring program is designed to first sense the gear lever moving out of the original gear position, then sense the lever in the neutral position, and finally sense the lever moving into the new gear position. If the lever stays in neutral for too short a time and the neutral sensor fails to detect it before shifting to the new gear, the computer will consider it a wrong gear shift and report an error, resulting in point deduction. 3. Not stepping on the accelerator promptly when starting: When starting, first release the clutch halfway, wait for the car body to begin shaking, then release the handbrake. The moment the handbrake is fully released, immediately step lightly on the accelerator to give gas. If the accelerator is not pressed promptly at this time, it may report "incorrect driving posture."
