Oil high means for a Mercedes ml320?

The oil level for a Mercedes ML320 should be between the “MIN” and “MAX” marks on the oil dipstick. Here are some things that can happen when the oil level is too high:

* Oil leaks: Excessive oil can cause the oil seals in the engine to fail resulting in oil leaks.

* Spark plug fouling: Too much oil can foul the spark plugs reducing the engine’s performance and causing it to run rough.

* Engine knock: In some cases, excessive oil can cause the engine to knock.

* Engine damage: In severe cases, too much oil can damage the engine.

If you think the oil level in your ML320 is too high it’s important to have it checked by a qualified mechanic as soon as possible.
