These habits include driving on an empty fuel tank, revving the engine while still in Park, or slamming the gas pedal while the engine is still cold. Protect your engine’s performance and efficiency by distancing yourself from these habits.
  • Is it okay to put water in my Mercedes-Benz E550 radiator? An emergency is the only time you should consider putting water in your radiator. Outside of that, it’s recommended you use a pre-mixed coolant or a 50/50 blend of water and coolant.
