Thank you all for your suggestions and word of encouragement I think the quality of the members in this forum is what makes this place rock.

I plan to monitor the leak(s) for a while I still have not found out the exact source so that is going to be my priority. I think I will feel allot better once I know exactly where the leak is and I can map a course of action.


Kestas,

Two cars one for the winter and one for the summer, that sounds like the best deal to me unfortunately here in this part of Texas we seem to have a perpetual summer/spring weather so there is no need for two cars, and we have no concerns for rust, so we have been bless in a way. Now if we could only have one car with no leaks (MB) that will be more of a blessing but I take what I got and I will try the best of the situation. If the leak becomes impossible for me to bear then I will consider fixing it myself, taking the car to an expert MB mechanic, or to the dealer.

Eric,

I will not use oil additives, but I will consider using good motor oil with good ingredients like the Valvoline Maxlife you have suggested, I will keep that on mind. For the moment I am going to stick with the Mobil 15-50 which I believe is what the dealer put in my E320 when I first took my car to have it inspected. From now on I will be doing my own oil change (I always have on my cars) I do not believe in the suction method the dealer use to change oil, it leaves too much residue and old oil in the oil pan.

Hassman,

Thank you for your words I hope you were able to fix the problem you had with the power sunroof. I looked like crazy in my Bentley manual, and the MB CD¡¦s but could not find any reference to the location of the switch/relay you were trying to find. If is not a oil leak, then is an air leak, a leak is a leak nevertheless.

Olpos,

From the first moment I got my car 95 E-320, the first thing I did was to take it to the dealer and had all the fluids change, since I did not trust the quality of service or fluids the car had prior to me buying it. In fact the previous owner was using I believe Prestone as coolant (green stuff). Any ways they replace the old oil with regular dyno Mobil 15-50 and that¡¦s what I plan to use from now on.
