Questions About 2006 Mercedes-Benz R350 Engines

  • Why does the check engine light come on when I start my R350? Generally, your check engine light turning on upon ignition is not a bad thing. It’s just your R350 firing up its circuits. The dash light shouldn't stay on. If it does, you might want to bring your vehicle in for service.
  • Why is my Mercedes-Benz R350 making engine noise? Strange under-the-hood noises can point to problems within your Mercedes-Benz R350 engine. Tapping or knocking could mean you need an oil change. A high-pitched whistle could signal an intake leak or misaligned belt. Squealing can be traced back to a loose fan belt, and grinding might be coming from the brakes, not the engine.
