Check engine light on - Please help
I have a 2011 C300 and while driving today the yellow check engine warning came on. I pulled into an Autozone, had them check it, and was told that it was showing that I was low on antifreeze. This was my time to have to have a service engine light checked, so I took them for their word. I get home and read the manual and notice that there is a different light that comes on when engine coolant is low. Am I right, are did the light come on indicating a low level of antifreeze?
UPDATE...not sure exactly how to read the level.
Lets say I needed to add some antifreeze, can someone please help me in determining what I can use?
I'm wondering if it is it ok to continue driving until I can get to the dealership, which 2 hours away.
