Should I check my Mercedes-Benz CLK500 motor oil level?

Engine oil is a lubricant for the moving parts in your engine. If you're low or out of oil, these parts can grind together, overheat, and cause your CLK500’s engine to fail. That’s why you should check your oil and get it changed regularly.

Can I change my Mercedes-Benz CLK500 oil at home?

Changing your own oil isn't as convenient as you might think. You’ll have to buy special tools and figure out a way to recycle the old oil properly. Getting a professional oil change reduces the risk of something going wrong during the service, but also help your car perform down the road.
