C200 4MATIC Cabrio 2017
Oil under a new C200 4matic
2 days ago I got my new C200 4matic cabrio delivered and when I park backwards into my garage there's a trail of oil in front of the car. There's no oil under the car (overnight). Is this normal? It's my first petrol engine. I always had diesel engines before.
I did contact the dealer but hope to know more before the end of the weekend.

Update:
It stopped just like that. Apparantly they overfill it sometimes during the fabrication.

I take it your dealer has checked it out and have you checked out the oil level on the dipstick?

I checked out the oil level on the dipstick. The dealer never gave a satisfying answer. Now 8000 km later still no problem.

Then I guess you're good to go, well you have been for quite a while. I'd keep an eye out on the dipstick and a quart or two of Mobil's finest in the trunk just in case. Better safe than sorry.
