Overview of Essential Mercedes-Benz E500 Maintenance Needs

A Courtesy Check helps "set the stage" for your service and catch any small problems before they turn into big repairs.

Think you could be due for a new battery in your 2006 Mercedes-Benz E500? Batteries generally need to be replaced every three to five years. Depending on the climate where you live and your habits while driving, your E500 may need a replacement battery sooner. 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 E500 battery. It can be tempting to try and get as much life out of your battery as possible, but it’s smart to check it regularly and replace it before it gets too weak. Otherwise, you may find yourself (and your trusty E500) stuck in the middle of nowhere. Your Mercedes-Benz E500 won't be going anywhere without a strong battery.

In addition to maintaining a strong battery, investing in regular oil changes can support your engine’s overall performance and keep your 2006 Mercedes-Benz E500 running newer, longer. To learn how often Mercedes-Benz recommends you have the oil changed in your 2006 E500, check out the information table at the beginning of this page. Remember, things like average outside temperature or frequency of trips could increase or decrease this interval for your specific vehicle. A Firestone Complete Auto Care technician will be happy to help you determine the best oil change frequency for your car’s needs. Not sure what type of oil to use for your 2006 Mercedes-Benz E500? We can help with that, too!

Periodic service to the steering system in your Mercedes-Benz E500 can not only ensure a smooth ride; it can also help you maintain control of your car in compromised road conditions. 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 the appropriate Mercedes-Benz E500 steering and suspension services. This can include things like power steering fluid replacement, wheel alignment adjustments, replacement of struts and wheel bearings, and ball joint lubrication. Prevent damage or premature wear and tear on your Mercedes-Benz E500's steering system with regular maintenance.

If you skip recommended Mercedes-Benz E500 services, you could be feeling the heat on the road – literally! A malfunctioning A/C system or overheating engine can wreak havoc on your car.

  • What should I do after hitting a pothole in my Mercedes-Benz E500? 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.
  • When does my Mercedes-Benz E500 need high mileage oil? Got 75,000+ miles on the odometer? Consider high mileage motor oil.

It can help reduce oil consumption, smoke, and emissions from older Mercedes-Benz E500 engines.
  •  Why are my Mercedes-Benz dashboard lights on? Because there might be a problem under the hood. Those warning lights are there for a reason!
