I've been driving a Mercedes-Benz S450 for over half a year, mostly for urban commuting. According to my fuel consumption records using Xiaoxiong Youhao app, the average is around 11.5L/100km. During rush hour traffic jams, it can spike to 14L, while on highways it stays stable at just over 9L. The 3.0T engine with 48V mild hybrid system does help with fuel efficiency, but the electric motor assistance is limited in traffic jams. Using AC increases fuel consumption by about 1L, and aggressive acceleration/braking also affects the data. Compared to the official claimed 8.9L/100km, my real-world figures being slightly higher is normal. I recommend using 98 octane fuel for better combustion efficiency. Overall, this is quite reasonable for a D-segment luxury sedan.

How to Determine if a Car Has Cylinder Scoring?

Methods to determine cylinder scoring in a car include: 1. Reduced cylinder compression pressure and loss of power; 2. Downstream leakage of combustible mixture increases crankcase pressure, which may lead to crankcase explosion in severe cases; 3. Upstream leakage of lubricating oil into the cylinder causing oil burning; 4. Excessive smoke from the exhaust pipe; 5. Abnormal engine noise; 6. Engine malfunction or even stalling. Methods to prevent cylinder scoring include: 1. Adjust the clearance between the piston skirt and cylinder liner, as well as the piston ring end gap; 2. Strengthen the maintenance of the air filter to prevent dust from entering the cylinder; 3. Maintain the lubrication system; 4. Regularly check the engine oil level; 5.

Do I need to be present for the first car maintenance?

It is not necessary for the car owner to be present for the first car maintenance. Car brands usually offer the first maintenance for free. You just need to drive the car and bring the vehicle license, purchase invoice, first free maintenance card, maintenance manual, and driver's license. The vehicle license must be carried, as the staff will establish a vehicle file based on the information in the vehicle license. If you encounter traffic police during the drive, you will also need to provide the vehicle license to avoid unnecessary trouble. The first maintenance refers to the initial service after the new car has been driven. The timing of the first maintenance varies by car, typically after driving 1,000 to 3,000 kilometers. Completing the first maintenance indicates that the vehicle's break-in period has ended, and it can now be driven at the standard load and normal speed specified for the vehicle.
