Attention to Mercedes-Benz vehicle owners about cam sprocket/timing chain/balance shaft failure.
Some of you may be wondering why your Mercedes-Benz engine sounds louder or rougher than usual, this is probably one of the main reasons why. Check out the photos to understand the issue better.
And for preventive maintenance and prolonging the lifespan of the wear and tear componments:
- Servicing the engine oil on time or even 500km before the appointed mileage is ideal.
- Use correct and high quality engine oil. We strongly suggest the use of fully-synthetic oil for your regular oil service. This is because fully-synthetic oil provides better wear protection as it contains the stronger properties of retaining the oil sticking to the metal components inside your engine.
- Replace parts on time or when mileage is nearing regardless how well you have taken care of the engine components.
