Replace with higher viscosity engine oil, which can help alleviate the issue, you may consider trying this. Carbon deposits in the combustion chamber can cause the piston rings to stick, leading to poor sealing. In such cases, it is necessary to remove the carbon deposits and replace the piston rings.

My WEY VV7 also had oil burning issues before, and it was quite a hassle. Don't rush to dismantle the engine—first check if the valve stem seals are aged. If these leak, oil can sneak into the combustion chamber. A damaged turbocharger seal can also cause oil burning. Shine a flashlight on the intercooler pipe; if you spot oil stains, this might be the issue. Piston ring carbon buildup and sticking are the most troublesome—you'll need to measure cylinder pressure. If there's over a 10% difference, consider opening the engine to replace the rings. Also, don't use just any oil; stick to the manual's 0W-40 requirement. Oil with too low viscosity can evaporate under high heat. If the dipstick drops below the lower limit within 2,000 km, head to the dealership for a computer check on crankcase pressure—don't wait until cylinder scoring costs you tens of thousands in repairs. And avoid flooring the accelerator; driving gently is better for the car.

What is the weight of the Mercedes-Benz CLA?

Mercedes-Benz CLA180 has a weight of 2350Kg, which is a model with solid build quality. Vehicle Weight: Vehicle weight specifically refers to the curb weight (kg) of a car. The curb weight of a car is the empty weight of the car when it is fully equipped according to the factory technical conditions (such as spare tires, tools, etc.), with all fuels and water filled, and without any passengers (including the driver) or cargo. Role of Vehicle Weight: The heavier the vehicle, the better the driving stability, especially during sharp turns and emergency braking. At the same time, it is also more solid during collisions, with less deformation, making it relatively safer. The lighter the vehicle, the relatively poorer the driving stability, especially noticeable during turns and high-speed driving when the car may feel more floaty. In the event of a collision, lighter vehicles tend to be more fragile (excluding high-end body materials like carbon fiber), with more severe deformation of the steel plates. However, lighter vehicles are relatively more fuel-efficient.
