Mercedes Classe S - Video tutorial

Model: Mercedes Classe S MK 3, W140 - Years 1991-1998
Part: Checks and maintenance
Operation: Engine oil level check instructions

All engines are equipped with a so-called stick that allows you to check the state of the engine oil level. At the end of the stick there is in fact a level indicator between MIN (minimum) and Max (maximum) and it is absolutely important that the level is always included between these two limits, never below or above. To check the level, simply extract the stick, clean the end, insert it again as far as it will go and extract it to check to what extent it is soiled by the oil. It is preferable to carry out this check cold, since it is certain that there is no oil still in circulation and that everything has been deposited in the special cup; when the engine is hot, it is absolutely necessary to wait about 10-15 minutes to allow all the oil in circulation to flow into the sump. Approximately one liter of oil is included between the minimum and maximum level.
