Good day. I recently noticed my Engine Fan comes up on its own when the car is off and the key out of the ignition. It just comes on and goes off at interval. One times blows for a short time and some long before stopping. What could be the cause? Diagnosis isn’t showing. It only happens when the car is off and key out of the ignition.


There is a partial contact at the fan connectors or sensor. Gazzuzz once talked about it. Have it checked out or get in torch with Gazzuzz, he will sort you out.

Warm regards.

Thank you very much. I spoke with him and he said he would be able to get the job done, however taking the vehicle to Abuja is going to be hectic. Please do you know anyone in Lagos or Benin?

It's not a major accident as long as the chassis is not bent, airbags didn't deploy and the car wasn't demobilized and needed to be towed. In my opinion, it's a minor accident but you must ensure you check properly to ensure it was properly repaired.

This is the second time the message came up within 4 month of use. i have serviced the car twice.
this ride arrived from Texas in July the first time it occurred i have the car inspected for leakages, but we didnt find anywhere leaking and i serviced it again.
infact i have checked with my mechanic no leakeage whatsover was detected.
everywhere under the car is dry but the oil level gradual moved from max to middle. please what could be the problem or make i deu use am like that?

funny enough a whole lot of guys in my area also have the same message on their dashboard and their mechanic was not perturbed

Top up, that is if you have a low mileage.... But if you don't have drain and change oil....


SUV shorts oil



If there is no leakages then top up or drink after 6 months

Dear All,
Please do you have this message on your dashboard and what does it mean especially when your oil level is at the middle mark of the dipstick CHECK ENGINE OIL LEVEL AT NEXT REFUELLING.. is shown on my ML350
Please share your experience.
Thank you
You're fine. As long as you have no visible leaks.
First time that popped up I was worried.
Your car is expected to burn an average of 1litre per 1000km, depending on your driving style and engine mileage. The message will come up everytime that pressure drop is detected. Just do the necessary top up

If you drive a w166, read page 261 of your user manual.

Pls, I need help. I changed d alternator pulley after my mechanic told me to change it but d fan belt cut after five days. I have lost count of d number of fan belts I have changed in few months.

OEM belts or cheap Chinese knockoffs?

And I hope there's no leakage that touches the belt?
Re: Mercedes Benz Thread by awesome9ja: 10:16am On Oct 22, 2021
Good morning @ OfficialDJ,
Am not sure it is the sensor. When I use the dip stick to check every morning I noticed gradual reduction of level. I have checked every where underneath the car no drainage, leakage whatsoever. I think the oil is burning out quicker. Should I change to thicker oil?
OfficialDJ:
your engine oil level sensor is the likely culprit then....
If it isn't due service yet....

Re: Mercedes Benz Thread by awesome9ja: 10:17am On Oct 22, 2021
Ok. Noted I will keep topping up

05W-30 Synthetic High Mileage Oil is your best bet...

In addendum, visit a benz specialist to put you through.

Hello Gurus,

Please my 2007 MB B200 doesn't accelerate when I step on the throttle, it's sluggish. I bought it last month as Toks. When it was delivered to me at my base, the driver who brought it said I should top up the ATF, that it's low. I did, thinking that was the cause of the issue, but nothing has changed. Although I realised it wasn't the specified ATF that my mechanic poured inside. I've asked him to drain it all and pour the specified MB ATF, but the issue still persists...

Please help me

Get a competent technician to rescan the whole car again. Also, you may wish to check your car if it's brakes are binding too.
