Why did the engine light come on in the Mercedes Actros?

Years

Answer

The engine light, when lit red, indicates a general malfunction in the engine. It could be accompanied by abnormal behaviors such as loss of power, limited speed or jerking under acceleration. These are anomalies that do not 100% affect the use of the vehicle, for example to go to the workshop. However, when the warning light flashes, it could signal a critical overheating of the catalyst. In this case, you must stop the engine immediately and avoid starting it again before receiving assistance.
