The fault
How you spot it
On the M282 1.3 litre turbo petrol engine built in cooperation with Renault (A/B/CLA/GLA/GLB), a recall supervised by the German federal motor transport authority states that the turbo oil feed line could leak on cars built between 17 August 2019 and 6 July 2020.
The leaking engine oil can reach the underbody shield and from there the road (a skid risk for following traffic), and reaching hot engine bay parts it also presents a fire risk. The maker's action code is 0993022; around 8,270 cars worldwide, of which about 1,532 in Germany.
At the workshop the line is inspected and replaced if needed (about 90 minutes). On the GLB this is the most common petrol engine.

Information, not an expert opinion
We write the descriptions, and we put the source next to them. A person reviews them before they go out. They are still information, not a technical expert opinion.
- A fault on the list does not mean the car you are looking at has it.
- A fault missing from the list does not mean the model is fault-free. Write-ups are made model by model. Not all of them are done.
- You decide whether to buy. This is no substitute for an inspection. That needs a workshop and a history check.
