Mercedes-Benz is a German automobile brand and one of the premium car brands. It is important to correctly use the various buttons in the car. Generally, the fuel level in a Mercedes-Benz is displayed on the fuel gauge located on the dashboard behind the steering wheel. Some models may only show the number of bars indicating the fuel level. By adjusting the buttons on the left side of the steering wheel, you can switch the screen display to show the fuel level interface, where you can see the remaining fuel level.

As a seasoned Mercedes driver with years of experience, checking the remaining fuel is a piece of cake. After starting the car, just glance at the dashboard—there's a fuel gauge with scale or digital display showing the remaining percentage and estimated range. Use the buttons on the left side of the steering wheel to navigate, and you can quickly switch to the fuel level interface. The MBUX system in Mercedes is quite smart, calculating the remaining distance in real-time based on my driving habits, like longer range on highways. I recommend not waiting until the fuel drops to the red line to refuel; keeping it above a quarter tank is better for the fuel pump. When fuel is low, a yellow warning light flashes—never ignore it. Once on the highway, I almost ran out of gas, and it popped up a prompt to refuel. Connecting to the Mercedes Me App also lets you check the remaining fuel remotely on your phone, making it much easier to plan gas stops before long trips. Make it a habit to take a quick look before driving every day—it’s safe and worry-free.

What does automatic two-wheel drive mean?

Automatic two-wheel drive means that the car is driven by two wheels. In contrast, there is "four-wheel drive" (as the name suggests, all four wheels of the car can receive driving force). Simply put, a two-wheel drive car refers to a vehicle where the rear wheels (or front wheels) are the driving wheels, and the front wheels (or rear wheels) are the driven wheels, with the driving and driven wheels fixed and unchanging. A four-wheel drive car can have either the rear wheels or the front wheels as the driving wheels, but not both simultaneously. There are two types of two-wheel drive cars: front-wheel drive and rear-wheel drive. Below are the two scenarios for two-wheel drive cars: Front-wheel drive: In front-wheel drive cars, the front wheels are the driving wheels. The advantages of front-wheel drive cars with the same displacement include higher effective kinetic energy output, lower fuel consumption, stronger power, smaller size, larger interior space, lighter overall weight, compact structure, lower failure rate, and higher driving speed. Front-wheel drive cars are generally used in high-priced, spacious sedans. Rear-wheel drive: Rear-wheel drive cars have the rear wheels as the driving wheels. The advantages of rear-wheel drive cars with the same displacement include better load-bearing capacity, simple structure, easy maintenance, and good handling performance. Therefore, rear-wheel drive cars are generally used in large-sized, high-capacity medium and large freight and passenger vehicles.

What does it mean when the oil can light flashes?

The reasons for the flashing oil can light are: 1. Excessive oil consumption, burning oil; 2. Assembly process issues, oil pan leakage, poor valve chamber sealing, oil entering the cylinder and being burned; 3. Damaged oil-gas separator, incomplete oil separation by the exhaust valve, causing oil to enter the cylinder and burn; 4. Significant oil pump wear, oil passage blockage. The flashing oil can light comes in two colors: yellow and red. Yellow indicates that the oil is starting to run low, but the vehicle can still be driven normally. Red indicates severe oil shortage or blockage, requiring immediate stopping of the vehicle and calling for rescue to tow the car.
