Looking for oil change recommendations for your 1999 Mercedes-Benz E55 AMG? Look no further than Firestone Complete Auto Care! We're experts in more than tires. We know all about motor oil, too. After all, "Oil is the blood of the engine. It's the #1 thing you can do for your car," says our maintenance technician, Brianna.

Your 1999 E55 AMG’s oil should be changed according to Mercedes-Benz’s recommended oil change intervals. Check the interval for your vehicle mileage in the table above. No matter the mileage, your E55 AMG may need its oil changed ASAP if your check engine light is on, you hear knocking sounds coming from the engine, sense an oil smell in the cabin, or notice excess vehicle exhaust.

In general, being extra-diligent about oil changes won’t damage your Mercedes-Benz E55 AMG. Each oil change is actually another chance to check and resolve other car issues, such as worn brake pads or tire treads.

1999 Mercedes-Benz E55 AMG Oil Change Q&A

  • What can low oil do to my Mercedes-Benz E55 AMG engine? Engine oil is a lubricant for the moving parts in your engine. If you're low or out of oil, engine parts can grind together, generate excess heat, and cause your E55 AMG’s engine to fail. That’s why you should check your oil and get it changed regularly.
  • Can I change my Mercedes-Benz E55 AMG 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 with your vehicle down the road.
  • Why is my Mercedes-Benz E55 AMG exhaust smoke grayish or blue? You could have an oil leak and have a case of burning oil. Looks like it’s time for a professional to take a look. The leak could be caused by several issues like leaking valve seals, blown piston rings, or damaged cylinder walls.
  • Who offers Mercedes-Benz E55 AMG oil changes? Turn to Firestone Complete Auto Care for Mercedes-Benz E55 AMG 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 E55 AMG to illuminate? The oil change light in your Mercedes-Benz E55 AMG could be triggered by an overdue oil change. However, if the oil pressure light is on, you may be dealing with low engine oil, a failing oil pump, a clogged oil filter, or a malfunctioning oil pressure sensor.
  • Do I need to replace my E55 AMG’s oil filter when changing my oil? You should replace your Mercedes-Benz E55 AMG 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.
