Retro styling, strong cross-country ability, Mercedes-Benz G-Class is known as every man's dream, and even a symbol of status and status. The price of the high-end Mercedes-Benz G-Class is high, so only a small number of fans can own it. At the same time, because of its heat and output, the domestic sales of the Mercedes-Benz G-Class are in short supply, leading to a long-term price increase, which is common to charge more than 500000. Become another price increase magic car.

It is not too much to describe the Mercedes-Benz G-Class with both strength and faith, but what consumers are ultimately concerned about is product quality. Some netizens revealed that something happened to the Shanghai Mercedes-Benz G again, and some car owners pulled banners to protect their rights.

"do you want to buy a Mercedes? Do you want to buy big G? The price of the car is 1.64 million, plus 450000, 2.1 million for five thousand kilometers and burns three liters of engine oil. " The protection of rights from a Mercedes-Benz G-class owner is bitter, but the process of using the car is full of stories. Judging from the picture, the incident took place at Shanghai Lixing Mercedes-Benz store.

The normal operation of the engine is bound to consume oil, but the amount determines whether it is a normal phenomenon. Data show that Mercedes-Benz G-class normal maintenance interval is 10,000 kilometers, filling oil volume of 8 liters. According to the saying that the owner of the Mercedes-Benz G consumes 3 liters of engine oil for 5,000 kilometers, there is an abnormal reminder on the dashboard before the maintenance cycle, and requires that the engine oil be filled as soon as possible.

The phenomenon of "burning engine oil" in a vehicle will damage the vehicle oxygen sensor too quickly, resulting in increased carbon deposition in the combustion chamber, unstable idle speed, weak acceleration, rising fuel consumption, excessive exhaust emissions and other adverse consequences, such as insufficient lubrication of the engine in serious cases. The engine causes irreparable damage or even scrap, resulting in a substantial increase in maintenance costs and even hidden dangers of accidents. Therefore, burning engine oil is not only very troublesome to add oil frequently, but also a major hidden danger.

It is learned from the Mercedes-Benz G-level forum that recently many consumers have reported the problem of excessive oil consumption and the number of complaints has increased.

In October 2018, some car owners reported that the Mercedes-Benz G63, which had been purchased for less than a year, burned 2 liters of oil every 3000 kilometers, and therefore came to Zhongsheng Xinghui Mercedes-Benz 4S store in Quanzhou to pull banners to protect its rights, saying that it did not accept the plan of disassembling the engine for inspection and maintenance and asked to return the car.

In June 2019, an owner of an old Mercedes-Benz G63 posted that the new car he bought in September last year now consumes too much oil. "2000 kilometers began to call the police, after filling 11 kilometers of oil, 5000 kilometers called the police, went to the 4s store for testing, changed the oil to do 1000 kilometers test, finished testing 1000 kilometers of wear and tear 0.35l oil, asked me to keep some oil in my trunk and often added some oil, and told me that there was no problem within 10,000 kilometers." The car owner said that he asked to replace the engine, but the 4S store plan must disassemble the engine to find out the problem and then talk about dealing with it.

Whether it is the old model or the new Mercedes-Benz G-Class, there is the problem of excessive oil consumption. A netizen posted that the 2019 G500 it bought burned oil, and the oil alarm for more than 6000 kilometers of the new car. After changing the oil at the 4S store and adding an extra liter, the oil showed a drop of half after driving for more than 6000 kilometers.

In addition, there are other problems with the Mercedes-Benz G-class engine. According to media reports, Mr. Li, the owner of a car in Hunan province, spent 2.08 million yuan on a Mercedes-Benz G500 off-road vehicle at the end of 2018 and drove it for two months. The fault light turned on and the engine trembled violently. Finally, tested by the 4S store, it was confirmed that the failure of the timing chain caused the engine cylinder crack to be scrapped, and the 4S store said that the engine could only be replaced.

Mercedes-Benz G500 and AMG G63 models are equipped with 4.0T twin-turbocharged V8 engine, the official guidance price is 155.88-2.458 million yuan, due to the terminal sales price increase, the final landing price is much higher. However, hundreds of thousands of fare increases have put car owners on the road of safeguarding their rights, and various problems with the engine have chilled their "beliefs."

Oil alarm and excessive oil consumption may become daily problems for Mercedes-Benz G-class owners. They wait for an answer from Mercedes-Benz manufacturers: is it normal to consume oil too fast?
