. How does poor fuel quality in Pakistan impact the emissions system of the Mercedes-Benz S-Class?

Low-grade o r contaminated fuel commonly found in Pakistan can cause incomplete combustion, leading to increased emissions, clogging of injectors, and damage to the catalytic converter. This deteriorates overall emission system performance and can trigger warning lights.

The check engine light related to emissions can be triggered by:

Faulty Sensors: Oxygen sensors, Mass Air Flow MAF sensors, o r other emission control sensors may fail o r give incorrect signals.

Exhaust Leaks: Leaks in the exhaust manifold o r pipes allow unfiltered gases to escape and disrupt sensor readings.

Evaporative Emission System Issues: Problems in the fuel vapor recovery system, like damaged charcoal canisters o r loose gas caps.

Poor Fuel Quality: Contaminants in fuel can affect combustion and sensor performance.

Engine Misfires o r Inefficiency: Incomplete combustion increases emissions and triggers warnings.

Prompt scanning with diagnostic tools identifies the exact cause for timely repair.
