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.

Keeping up with routine service appointments is a great way to keep your CL500 running for longer, decrease your risk of dangerous malfunctions on the road, and help you avoid expensive repairs caused by 2004 Mercedes-Benz CL500 problems later.

Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 2004 Mercedes-Benz CL500 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 CL500's windshield wiper blades, head and tail lights, filters, fluid levels, tires, and alignment.

Think you could be due for a new battery in your 2004 Mercedes-Benz CL500? In general, car batteries only last three to five years.
