Mercedes-Benz maintenance B7 item indicates that the current maintenance is due, and specific maintenance items need to be checked at the 4S dealership based on the mileage. Below are the relevant introductions to the maintenance items: 1. Oil filter: The replacement of engine oil and oil filter is primarily for the maintenance of the lubrication system. The main function of the lubrication system is to effectively lubricate various components of the car engine to prevent excessive wear. The oil filter's function is to remove various impurities from the engine oil to ensure the normal operation of the lubrication system. The oil filter should be replaced along with the engine oil during an oil change. Under normal circumstances, the car should be serviced every 5000KM. 2. Air filter: The air filter's role is to filter the air before it enters the cylinder, removing impurities, dust, sand, and other foreign particles. The cleaning and maintenance of the air filter depend on the usage environment. The gasoline filter is generally replaced after driving 20,000-25,000KM.

I've been driving a Mercedes for over a decade. B-Class maintenance is similar to the C or E series, with many critical items. The most basic is changing the engine oil and oil filter, which should be done every 10,000 kilometers or so to keep the engine running smoothly and reduce wear. The air filter needs to be replaced to avoid dust clogging and affecting air intake. Checking the braking system is crucial—replace brake pads and top up fluid levels when necessary, or you might regret it if something happens at high speeds. Tires also require maintenance, such as rotation or alignment to prevent uneven wear and save on replacement costs. Additionally, coolant, battery testing, and spark plug replacements should be scheduled based on the car's age and mileage. I recommend a comprehensive air conditioning system check every spring, preparing for the summer heat. Regular maintenance can extend the car's lifespan and preserve its value—never cut corners for convenience. Safety comes first, and taking it to a professional shop is more hassle-free than DIY.

What to Do When the ABS Anti-lock Braking System Fails?

When the ABS anti-lock braking system fails, the following items need to be checked: 1. Inspect the wiring and connectors to see if there is poor contact or damage; 2. Check the installation gap and position of the wheel speed sensor and tone ring, as well as whether they are contaminated by dust or debris; 3. Examine whether the wheel bearing clearance is too large and adjust it to the normal value; 4. Avoid high-speed driving and sudden braking. Additional Information: 1. The anti-lock braking system, commonly referred to as the ABS system in our vehicles, will stop functioning when the ABS warning light illuminates, indicating a fault in the system. 2. The ABS system prevents wheel lock-up during braking. Without ABS, if the wheels lock during braking, the driver loses directional control, which can easily lead to severe consequences. 3. The ABS anti-lock braking system mainly consists of wheel speed sensors, an electronic control unit, ABS modulator valves, an ABS warning light, and hydraulic control lines.

What to Do When the Steering Wheel Locks and the Car Won't Start?

When the vehicle's steering wheel is locked and the engine won't start, you can insert the key, press the brake pedal, then turn the steering wheel left and right while simultaneously turning the ignition key to complete the steering wheel unlocking procedure. Note that the key won't turn if you don't rotate the steering wheel during this process. Here's some additional information: 1. The steering wheel lock is a simple anti-theft feature. 2. It's important to check if the vehicle is properly parked after stopping. If you forget how many turns the steering wheel has made, observe the wheel rotation from outside. If you notice the tires aren't straight after turning off the engine, never force the steering wheel back to center position - you must restart the vehicle first to avoid damaging the steering mechanism.

What is the transmission model of the Volvo S60?

The transmission of the Volvo S60 is manufactured by Aisin. Established in 1969, Aisin is a world-renowned professional developer and manufacturer of automotive automatic transmissions. In the field of automotive automatic transmissions, Aisin's products hold the highest global market share. The Volvo S60 is equipped with an 8-speed automatic transmission. An automatic transmission is a gear-shifting device that can automatically change gears based on the vehicle's speed and engine RPM, as opposed to a manual transmission. When using the transmission of the Volvo S60 daily, the following points should be noted: Do not delay changing the transmission oil for an extended period. Prolonged failure to change the transmission oil can damage internal components such as bearings and the housing; Avoid coasting in neutral for long durations. Many experienced drivers of manual transmission vehicles may coast in neutral, but for automatic transmission vehicles, this can cause the transmission to overheat and may result in a jolt when shifting back into Drive (D) mode; Never shift into Drive (D) or Reverse (R) before the vehicle comes to a complete stop. Some drivers, aiming for a 'smooth' operation, shift into reverse while the vehicle is still moving, which can significantly damage the transmission gears and may lead to gear grinding or other faults over time; Avoid frequently climbing steep slopes in Drive (D) mode. On steep inclines, automatic transmission vehicles can overheat due to high load or may shift up too early, resulting in insufficient power. In such cases, using manual mode to limit the gear to a lower range or switching to sport mode can help protect the transmission; Do not tow the vehicle over long distances. If an automatic transmission vehicle breaks down, it should be transported using a flatbed tow truck with the transmission in Neutral (N) mode. Towing with a rope or dragging the vehicle directly should be avoided.
