Where to Add Antifreeze in a Mercedes-Benz?
2 Answers
Mercedes-Benz's antifreeze is added on the left side of the engine compartment, behind the headlight. The method of adding antifreeze is as follows: 1. Unscrew the radiator cap, open the radiator drain valve, and drain the antifreeze. 2. Insert a rubber hose connected to a tap into the radiator filler port and turn on the tap. 3. Once the cooling system water is completely drained, close the radiator drain valve. 4. Replace the radiator cap and the reservoir cap, then tighten them. Introduction to Mercedes-Benz: 1. Mercedes-Benz is a German luxury car brand, renowned for its perfect technical level, high-quality standards, innovative capabilities, and a series of classic coupe models. 2. The Mercedes three-pointed star is one of the world's most famous car and brand logos.
Antifreeze is the car's coolant, mainly added to the expansion tank. For Mercedes-Benz vehicles, after opening the hood, look for a small plastic container in the engine compartment, usually white or translucent, with a cap marked COOLANT or the antifreeze symbol. Before adding, make sure the car is turned off and cooled for at least half an hour, otherwise opening the hot cap can cause hot liquid to spray out and easily scald people. I've been repairing cars for many years and have seen many beginners get burned due to rushing to add coolant, so safety first. Check that the fluid level is between the high and low marks, and when low, add Mercedes-Benz-specific antifreeze up to the MAX line. Check it every six months or before long trips to prevent engine overheating damage. If you're unsure of the location, check the user manual diagram—it's always accurate—and never operate blindly. Replace the antifreeze before winter to prevent freezing and ensure engine durability.
