I saw one of those things once. The jet. It was like the size of my bicycle. 
The pilot couldn’t be much over 5’ to fit into it. It was very cool though and 
I bet it was lots of fun

I simply divide the mileage diven by the gallons of diesel pumped when I
fill the tank.  Usually matches the computer readout within half an mpg.

My 2012 ML350 BT final electronic average was 33.4 MPG on 660 mile trip South. 
Started on a full tank and made it to my destination without having to stop for 
fuel. So I would believe the 27 MPG. My car had it's emission update the end of 
December 2021, a month before I got the vehicle.

No way it averages 27, especially being a blue tec with the warranty done as 
that lowers MPG. Our 08 pre blue tec gets 23-24 on the highway.

If the oil pressure is good, a loud knocking could be a plugged injector.

Looks clean overall, but not worth the ask if the AC doesn't work and there are
