Learn About Vital Maintenance Needs for Your Mercedes-Benz 350SDL

Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 1991 Mercedes-Benz 350SDL for factory-recommended routine maintenance and a skilled technician will start the appointment with a Courtesy Check. This Courtesy Check can establish a baseline of what may need to be addressed during your service appointment. Every Courtesy Check will include a visual inspection of your 350SDL. We’ll check your head and tail lights, fluid levels, filters, tires (and their alignment!), and windshield wiper blades. We’ll also perform a free battery check to determine your battery’s charge level.

Think you could be due for a new battery in your 1991 Mercedes-Benz 350SDL? In general, car batteries only last three to five years. Yours may need to be replaced sooner depending on your driving habits and climate. Short trips and extreme temperatures can shorten the overall life expectancy of your Mercedes-Benz 350SDL battery. While you could wait until your battery fails and you hear the dreaded "click," you're better off replacing it before then! Otherwise, you may find yourself (and your trusty 350SDL) stuck in the middle of nowhere. Your Mercedes-Benz 350SDL won’t even be able to start with a weak battery, much less get you where you need to go.

In addition to maintaining a strong battery, investing in regular oil changes can prevent premature wear on your 1991 Mercedes-Benz 350SDL engine. See Mercedes-Benz's recommendations for oil change intervals for your 1991 350SDL in the chart at the top of this page. Don’t forget, though, that weather conditions in your area or your personal driving habits can affect this interval. Come in and speak with a Firestone Complete Auto Care technician to find out how often to change your oil. Not sure what type of oil to use for your 1991 Mercedes-Benz 350SDL? We can help with that, too!

  • What do I do if I hit a pothole in my Mercedes-Benz 350SDL? Check your car for pothole damage! If you’ve recently hit a pothole (or even if you don’t remember hitting one… they can be sneaky!) check your tire treads, tire sidewalls, and wheels for damage. Potholes can also knock your car out of alignment, so have your alignment checked if you suspect you’ve driven over a rough patch of road lately.

As soon as you notice that one’s illuminated, take your Mercedes-Benz 350SDL to Firestone Complete Auto Care so you can address any small problems long before they worsen.
