How to Check the Oil Level on a Mercedes A-Class

Model: Mercedes Classe A W177 - Years 2018-2026
Part: Checks and maintenance

Let's see how to check the oil level on a Mercedes A-Class W176/W177, both with gasoline and diesel engines. This is the specific procedure for models with an electronic oil indicator, so without the traditional dipstick. Park on a level surface, let it cool for a few minutes, turn on the ignition, navigate to the instrument cluster, and press the "menu" button: scroll to the "service" option and select "oil level". The display will show a bar or a message: "OK" for a full bar, correct level; "add XX quart" if the level is low; "overfilled" if the level is excessive (engine damage). If necessary, top off with approved Mercedes oil.
