Frequent engine oil leaks in Mercedes-Benz S-Class models are often caused by deteriorated gaskets and seals, such as the valve cover gasket, oil pan gasket, o r front and rear crankshaft seals. In Pakistan, harsh weather conditions, heat, and rough roads can accelerate the wear and tear of these components. Additionally, improper o r infrequent oil changes can cause sludge buildup, worsening leaks. To prevent this, regular inspection of gaskets, timely oil changes with the right oil grade, and using quality genuine parts during repairs are essential.
