1990 Mercedes-Benz 300SE Scheduled Maintenance

Take care of your Mercedes-Benz 300SE and it'll take care of you. With proactive maintenance, you could hit 200,000 miles (or beyond!) in your 300SE. Not an expert in what services your car needs and when? No problem. Instead of waiting for an issue to arise with your 300SE, you can stay ahead of problems before they even begin. Just follow your 1990 Mercedes-Benz 300SE maintenance schedule!

Mercedes-Benz knows your vehicle inside and out (they made it, after all!), so they’ve designed this schedule with your car’s unique needs in mind. Driving conditions, climate variations, and other variables can affect which scheduled maintenance services you’ll need; however, recommended maintenance usually includes services like oil changes, tire rotations, brake pad replacement, filter changes, and fluid checks and exchanges. Staying on track with routine service appointments can help your 300SE perform better, keep you safer on the road, and maybe even save you the headache of dealing with common 1990 Mercedes-Benz 300SE problems in the future.

Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 1990 Mercedes-Benz 300SE for factory-recommended routine maintenance and a skilled technician will start the appointment with a Courtesy Check. The Courtesy Check helps us see what we’re working with under the hood, and allows us to alert you to any potential problems before they worsen. Each Courtesy Check includes a free battery test and an inspection of your 300SE's windshield wiper blades, head and tail lights, filters, fluid levels, tires, and alignment.

Maybe it's time to find a new auto battery for your 1990 Mercedes-Benz 300SE. If your current battery is more than three years old, it may be time for a replacement (batteries typically last somewhere between three and five years). Yours may need to be replaced sooner depending on your driving habits and climate. Taking short trips or exposing your car to extreme temperatures (like in the dead of winter or heat of summer) could reduce the life expectancy of your Mercedes-Benz 300SE battery. Sure, you could wait until your battery is completely dead, but it’s a much wiser decision to replace it before you need to. Otherwise, your battery could die unexpectedly, leaving you and your 300SE stranded. Your Mercedes-Benz 300SE won't be going anywhere without a strong battery.

Ensuring you always have a well-charged battery can help your car’s overall performance, and regularly scheduled oil changes can prevent premature wear on your 1990 Mercedes-Benz 300SE engine. See Mercedes-Benz's recommendations for oil change intervals for your 1990 300SE in the chart at the top of this page. Keep in mind that your oil change interval could be different given your driving style and climate. Come in and speak with a Firestone Complete Auto Care technician to find out how often to change your oil. We'll also help you understand what type of oil to use for your 1990 Mercedes-Benz 300SE.

Periodic service to the steering system in your Mercedes-Benz 300SE can help you keep control of your vehicle at all times (plus, it can make for a smoother ride!). When it comes to steering and suspension, you want to catch small problems before they turn into big (and expensive) ones. Trust our technicians to inspect system components and if needed, provide Mercedes-Benz 300SE steering and suspension services including wheel alignment, strut replacement, power steering fluid changes, ball joint lubrication, and wheel bearing replacement. Components within your Mercedes-Benz 300SE's steering system require regular maintenance.

Without routine Mercedes-Benz 300SE maintenance, you (and your engine) could quickly lose your cool when there's a problem on the road–especially if that problem is an overheated engine or broken A/C. Don’t sweat it, though! Our technicians can take care of those issues, too. At Firestone Complete Auto Care, we have what it takes to provide top-notch service for your Mercedes-Benz 300SE engine heating and cooling systems, as well as your air conditioning. Need a new Mercedes-Benz 300SE radiator? We’ve got your back. A/C smelling musty? We’re here to fix that, too.
