Coolant error message without further details, please help

My car model: c300 amg 2019
So I went to the garage on last Friday to change the coolant liquid, after changing, my car suddenly have coolant error after driving for about 40 minutes.



The temperature seems fine (90~95 degree celcius), I let the car cooldown over the night, in the morning I opened the coolant tank and it seems the liquid is enough.
I started the car again and there is no error, but it will appear again if I drive it around 30 to 40 minutes.

Please help, thank you!

If you press the trackpad (acting as an ok button) on the "i" it will open up the digital user manual shown on the COMAND screen on your right, that will explain what it means, alternatively your user manual will also show.

I did try that, but it shows there is no further details for the error.

If you paid someone to change your coolant, I would take it back to them. It sure seems like they either did something wrong (could be an innocent mistake) or broke something.

I would verify it's the correct coolant also.

You know when the failure appeared.

Best of luck!

Good suggestion, I didn't even know how I missed that part that OP had it changed from an indie from the original post, I should had suggested this first before saying anything thanks for chiming in and helping OP out. Sorry about that OP.

No worries dude, we're just trying to help and guess, lol.

Not saying it's the case here, but I've definitely found that mechanical work on modern cars with the many sensors, logic, wires and connectors everywhere, if you get somebody in there with gorilla hands yanking and forcing things, you're much more likely to develop "ghost issues" caused by bad connectors or pulled, loose wires that break connection when hot and reestablish connection when cooled, like a printed curcuit board with a bad solder joint. Just thinking out loud. :p

Also, I'm assuming the coolant level is correct, I would double verify to make sure it's not below what the sensor expects.

So I taken my car to the mercedes official vendor, they said it was air bubble in auxiliary pump, and changed the coolant liquid to official mercedes brand.

Paid money for a lesson I guess... I though changing coolant liquid is an easy task for any garages.

I see, glad you found the issue, honestly it really is an easy task you could had done it yourself, sometimes these guys at those garages just rush things so they get their pay cheque, there is reason why I DIY stuff, that way I know it is done properly.
