• For many drivers, synthetic oil intervals commonly range between 7,500 and 10,000 miles, but severe driving conditions or frequent short trips may require more frequent service.
• Regular dealer service ensures accurate interval resets and digital service records that support warranty coverage and resale value.

• Use the manufacturer-recommended, Mercedes-Benz approved full synthetic engine oil to meet viscosity and performance standards for the turbocharged 2.0L inline engine.
• Factory-trained technicians select the precise oil grade required for your vehicle based on VIN and engine code to preserve performance and emissions control.
• Using non-approved oils can increase wear, impact turbocharger life, and jeopardize warranty claims; warranty-covered repairs must be done at a certified dealership.

How much oil does a 2023 Mercedes-Benz CLA-Class need?

• Oil capacity can vary with filter choice and service procedures; typical modern 2.0L turbo engines commonly require roughly 6–8 liters (approx. 6.4–8.5 quarts), but the exact specification is confirmed by VIN at the dealership.
• Our technicians verify the precise oil volume during service and measure final oil level to factory tolerances for optimal engine protection.
• Accurate oil fill and proper disposal of used oil are part of our service—using the correct volume reduces the risk of overfill or low-oil conditions that can damage turbocharged components.
