Hi Guys,

I have a new 2012 C250 and I noticed after I park it in my garage and check back in 2-3hours the car's hood/engine still feels pretty warm/hot. Is this normal? I checked the coolant and everything seems fine.

Thanks,

It's normal for the car's engine temperature to increase after it is stopped. Doesn't sound like anything to worry about.

I believe you should get a warning message on your dash cluster if the coolant is low

yes, the heat pours off mine in these hot days, when I garage it, for hours after I park.

It's absolutely normal.

On cold days after driving in, I raise the hood to warm up the garage a bit and replace the heat lost when the door is open.

I think I could cook bacon & eggs on mine, especially since 104+ degrees outside!
