2008 Mercedes-Benz CLK350 Oil Change Questions

  • Should I check my Mercedes-Benz CLK350 motor oil level? Motor oil lubricates important engine parts. If your oil reservoir is low or empty, these components can grind against each other, overheat, and eventually lead to Mercedes-Benz CLK350 engine failure. That’s why you should check your oil and get it changed regularly.
  • Can I change my Mercedes-Benz CLK350 oil at home? Changing engine oil at home isn’t as simple as it’s made out to be. It requires special tools and old oil must be disposed of properly. Having your oil changed professionally can not only reduce the risk of something going wrong during the service, but also help your car perform down the road.
  • Why is my Mercedes-Benz CLK350 exhaust smoke grayish or blue? You could have an oil leak and have a case of burning oil. Time to have a qualified technician check things out. A leak can be caused by a variety of issues including faulty valve seals, damaged piston rings, or worn cylinder walls.
  • Who can change the oil on my Mercedes-Benz CLK350? Turn to Firestone Complete Auto Care for Mercedes-Benz CLK350 oil changes. In addition to changing your oil, our experienced technicians also perform oil filter replacements, troubleshoot oil leaks, and suggest the correct oil to help keep your engine performing its best.
  • What can cause the oil light on my Mercedes-Benz CLK350 to illuminate? If you’re overdue for an oil change, it might trigger your Mercedes-Benz CLK350 oil change reminder light. If the oil pressure light is illuminated, it could be due to low engine oil, a failing oil pump, a malfunctioning oil pressure sensor, or a clogged oil filter.
  • Do I need to replace my CLK350’s oil filter when changing my oil? You should replace your Mercedes-Benz CLK350 during each oil change. The filter captures debris and contaminants to help keep your oil clean, which means the filter gets dirty. If you skip replacing the filter, you’ll contaminate your new oil with the dirty filter.
