Why does the check engine light come on when I start my S350?

Generally, your check engine light turning on upon ignition is not a bad thing. This is just your S350 testing its circuits. The light should go off shortly. Bring your vehicle in if it doesn't.

Are Mercedes-Benz S350 engine noises bad?

Unusual noises can signal a problem with your Mercedes-Benz S350 engine. Tapping or knocking could mean you're low on oil. Whistling sounds could mean you have an intake leak or misaligned belt. Squealing may be caused by a loose fan belt, and grinding could be a sign that something is wrong with your brakes — not the engine.

What could damage my Mercedes-Benz S350 engine?

Certain driving habits can damage your engine and should be avoided. These habits include 'running on fumes,' revving the engine while still in Park, or slamming the gas pedal while the engine is still cold. Help sustain your engine’s performance and efficiency by staying miles away from these bad driving practices.

Can I add water to my Mercedes-Benz S350 radiator?

It’s not recommended you put water in your S350 radiator unless it’s an emergency. Under normal circumstances, use a 50/50 mix of water and coolant or a pre-mixed coolant. But, if you need to keep driving while out of coolant, using water is better than driving with an empty coolant reservoir.

What could cause my S350 engine to suddenly stop?

Reasons your S350 car engine may suddenly stop include engine overheating, electrical troubles, mechanical issues, ignition system problems, faulty sensors, and low fuel.
