Used in multiple models such as the C300, E300, GLK300, and R300. Below is relevant information about the engine: Introduction: An engine (Engine) is a machine capable of converting other forms of energy into mechanical energy, including internal combustion engines (reciprocating piston engines), external combustion engines (Stirling engines, steam engines, etc.), jet engines, electric motors, etc. Expansion: For example, internal combustion engines typically convert chemical energy into mechanical energy. The term engine can refer to both the power-generating device and the entire machine that includes the power unit (e.g., gasoline engines, aircraft engines). The engine was first developed in the UK, so the concept of the engine also originates from English, with its original meaning referring to "a mechanical device that generates power."

The M272 engine is a great piece of machinery that I've driven in many older Mercedes-Benz cars. It was used by Mercedes from around 2005 to 2010 as their V6 engine. In terms of specific models, it was commonly found in the C-Class W203 and W204 versions, like those around 2006—I remember driving a friend's car back then and feeling how smooth the acceleration was. The E-Class W211 and W212 were also mainstays, quite popular around 2005. The CLS-Class C219, with its sleek and stylish design, also featured this engine. Some variants of the S-Class W221 were equipped with it, though mainly the base models. For SUVs, the ML-Class W164 delivered strong power and had ample space, making it great for long trips. The R-Class W251 was practical as a family car with its three-row seating. The GLK-Class X204 was a compact SUV, offering agility. Overall, the engine produced between 230 to 300 horsepower with moderate fuel consumption, but maintenance requires attention to the balance shaft issue to avoid unusual noises. These cars are now affordable in the used market, making them a good option for fans of classic models.

Is it normal to hear gas when opening the fuel tank cap during refueling?

It is normal to hear a small amount of gas escaping when opening the fuel tank cap during refueling. However, if a large amount of gas is released, it may indicate a clogged carbon canister, and you should consider having it inspected at a repair shop. Gasoline is a volatile substance and naturally produces vapor. Under normal circumstances, this vapor is not allowed to be released into the air to prevent pollution, which is why car manufacturers designed the carbon canister. Methods to check the condition of the carbon canister solenoid valve: 1. If gas sprays out when opening the fuel tank cap, it indicates a damaged solenoid valve; 2. If gasoline vapor or dripping oil appears at the carbon canister's atmospheric vent, it indicates a damaged solenoid valve; 3. Symptoms such as weak acceleration, jerking, unstable idle speed (fluctuating up and down), indicate a damaged solenoid valve; 4. If the engine fails to start after shutting off or produces abnormal noises while driving, it indicates a damaged solenoid valve.

What is the reason for the engine yellow light to come on?

The reasons for the engine yellow light to come on are: 1. Sensor issues, including water temperature, intake air temperature, oxygen sensor, etc. When these sensors are damaged, have poor contact, or signal interruption, it will cause the engine fault light to come on; 2. Maintenance issues, vehicles have a certain maintenance cycle. If the owner does not perform maintenance on schedule, combined with poor driving habits, it will increase the burden on the engine operation and cause the fault light to come on; 3. Poor combustion of the mixture, engine spark plug failure, ignition coil failure, fuel pump failure, fuel line blockage, etc. will all cause the engine fault light to come on. The engine components include: the engine block, crankshaft and connecting rod mechanism, valve train and intake and exhaust system, supply system and governor, starting device, cooling system, and lubrication system.
