Engine oil is leaking somewhere, is this common? 08 ML350 with 105,000KM, the car is mint and well kept and serviced. Just noticed my driveway had fresh oil leaked from car. Looks like it’s coming back of cylinder heads.

Has anyone done a fix for this?

 

Gasoline or diesel engine? If diesel, use the search function on this site and all of your questions will be answered. If gasoline, leaks are less common but not unheard of. Please post photos and more background on the vehicle (how long have you owned it, how many kms have you put on it, what service has been done in the past 12 months).

 

A 2008 diesel ML would be called 320, so his is obviously an M272.

Here’s an article on common oil leaks.
