Damage code
Cause
Remedy

Studies on engines 112/113 due to

excessive engine oil consumption have
indicated to date that excessive engine oil

consumption is not a general subject, but

rather can result from various causes.

The causes listed below may cause

excessive engine oil consumption individually

or in combination.

For commercially available tools for see

Workshop Equipment Manual

Cause 1:
Remedy 1:

00 001 70
Cast iron crust in right cylinder head behind

oil drain opening
1

Perform oil consumption test drive over

approx. 500 km.

AR18.00-P-0025AV
Exclude all other types of faults.

2
Remove/install/replace piston rings.

Install cleaned pistons with new piston

rings in the same cylinder.

Install piston rings with optimized ring

tension.

These piston rings are available as

replacement parts under the normal

replacement part number.

Cause 4:
Remedy 4:

00 001 70
Individual (right) cylinder heads with inner

porous points to air injection duct.

Individual engines with missing valve seals on

individual cylinders
1

Cause 7:
Remedy 7:

00 001 70
Engine oil sludging due to excessively long

engine oil change intervals
Service information: Oil sludge

SI18.00-P-0010A

If the service interval according to

ASSYST is exceeded, the engine oil sludges

up sooner or later depending on the oil

quality, type of operation and operating time.

Engine consumes oil.

See Service Information.

1
Print out ASSYST printout.

2
Check oil change intervals

3
Inform vehicle owner.

4
Remove/install/replace piston rings.

AR03.10-P-7311BV

Disassemble and clean sludged engines

completely because dirty oil usually gets into

clean-oil side due to clogged oil filter.

Cause 8:
Remedy 8:

00 001 70
Piston rings sticky or have coke deposits from

engine oils (e.g. API-S in USA) in connection

with regionally poor fuel quality.

Always use engine oils according to

Specifications for Operating Fluids 229.3, do

not add special additives to engine oil and fuel

BB00.40-P-0229-03A

1
Remove/install/replace piston rings.

AR03.10-P-7311BV

Cause 9:
Remedy 9:

00 001 70
Piston ring wear due to excessive

contamination/dust (model 163) through air

intake system.
1
Remove/install/replace gaskets on air

intake line and distribution element of

partial load ventilation.

e.g. due to incorrect assembly after

workshop visit or embrittlement of gaskets
The distribution element with optimized

material will be available as of 11/ 2000 as a

standard feature.

2
Remove/install/replace intake module.

Exterior oil loss, e.g. due to cast iron

porosity on left side of crankcase in area of

engine support is not considered to be oil

consumption

In the event of a customer complaint

regarding the engine oil consumption, always

determine the oil consumption definitely

because the oil indicator lamp can come on

due to other causes (e.g. defective oil sensor).
