2001 MERCEDES BENZ S600 Engine And Engine Coolingengine Problems

MY OIL COOLER HAS BEEN LEAKING SINCE 41,000 MILES AND I HAVE READ OTHER MERCEDES BENZ S600 OWNERS HAVE THE SAME PROBLEMS. TO FIX THIS PROBLEM I WOULD HAVE TO PAY A SHOP 4K DOLLARS. IF THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM FOR THIS CAR I THINK MERCEDES BENZ SHOULD HAVE A RECALL ON THIS ISSUE AND FIX THE PROBLEM. I LEAK UP TO A QUART OF OIL EVERY 2 WEEKS. *TR

I HAVE A 2001 MERCEDES BENZ S600. THE VEHICLE ONLY HAS 76,000 MILES. THE ENGINE OIL COOLER IS LEAKING, AND THIS CAN CAUSE A FIRE. THERE IS A LOT OF OTHER PEOPLE WHO HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THIS MAKE AND MODEL. IT SEEMS TO BE A MANUFACTURE DEFAULT. THE LEAKING OIL CAN RUN ON THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER AND CAUSE A SERIOUS FIRE. MBA SHOULD HAVE A RECALL ON THIS PROBLEM. *TR

2001 MERCEDES BENZ S600 OIL COOLER LEAKING 1 QUART OF OIL EVERY 500 MILES. THE CAR IS DRIVEN NORMALLY TO WORK AND VACATION TRIPS. NOTHING SPECIAL LEADING UP TO THE OCCURRENCE. THE CAR HAS NOT BEEN IN ANY ACCIDENT. I AM AFRAID THAT WITH THE AMOUNT OF OIL THAT LEAKS AND HOW IT RUNS DOWN THE BELL HOUSING AND HITS THE EXHAUST, THAT A FIRE IS POSSIBLE. WITH THE WINDAGE TRAY THAT IS MOUNTED UNDER THE TRANSMISSION, IT CAUSES IT TO POOL THE OIL AND LEAKS ON THE EXHAUST WHEN IT IS DRIVEN. THE OIL COOLER IS MOUNTED UNDER THE INTAKE MANIFOLD AND REQUIRES THE HEADS TO BE REMOVED IN ORDER TO REPAIR THIS ISSUE. THIS ISSUE OCCURS APPROX EVERY 40K-60K MILES. A SIMPLE REPLACEMENT DOES NOT RESOLVE THIS ISSUE. THERE IS AN ENGINEERING DEFECT HERE THAT MBUSA IS NOT WILLING TO RESOLVE WITH THE CUSTOMER OR A CHANGE IN...

2001 MERCEDES BENZ S600 WITH 50,000 MILES ON IT. ENGINE OIL COOLER LEAKING SINCE 40K MILES, NOW IT IS LEAKING PROFUSELY, MERCEDES BENZ WANTS $4000 TO FIX PROBLEM. *TR

OIL LEAK FROM THE OIL COOLER COLLECTOR AT THE BACK OF THE ENGINE. THE OIL RUNS DOWN THE EXHAUST PIPE. *TR

CAR ONLY HAS 64K MILES AND HAS A BAD OIL LEAK. MY GUESS IS THE OIL COOLER. FOR THE PRICE OF THIS CAR I SHOULD NOT HAVE A PUDDLE OF OIL ON MY GARAGE FLOOR. *TR
