Mercedes 904 commercial engine oil puzzle mystery.
Discussion
Hello,
I own a 2015
Optare solo bus with Mercedes 904 engine with 200608 miles. The bus is using an unbelievable amount of oil.
It used 8.5L in 100 miles!
There is no leaks, the air tanks are dry, I fitted brand new turbo from Mercedes with new intercooler and cleaned all hoses etc. There is no excessive smoke from exhaust and it past emissions test last week.
The bus has low Miles, runs and sounds fine, no leaks, past emission test but I have no idea where oil could be disappearing.
Can anyone point me in the right direction to check is there an issue with these engines I’m missing?
It is a mystery.
