2012 Mercedes-Benz E550 Maintenance Schedule

When it comes to your Mercedes-Benz E550, how you treat your car makes all the difference in its performance. With proactive maintenance, your E550 could be on the road well past the 200,000 mile mark. But how do you know what service to get and when? It can be overwhelming, but fortunately, there’s a resource that takes the guesswork out of routine E550 maintenance. Rely on the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been created just for your 2012 Mercedes-Benz E550!

The recommended maintenance schedule is put together by Mercedes-Benz, your vehicle manufacturer. Depending on driving conditions and climate in your area (as well as other contributing factors, like your personal travel habits), your car’s scheduled maintenance needs may vary; in most cases, though, recommended maintenance will consist of services like oil changes, tire rotations, brake pad replacement, filter changes, and fluid checks and exchanges. Scheduling routine service appointments is one of the best ways to help extend your E550's life, decrease your risk of dangerous malfunctions on the road, and prevent common 2012 Mercedes-Benz E550 problems.

Bring your 2012 Mercedes-Benz E550 to Firestone Complete Auto Care for factory-recommended maintenance services and an expert technician will begin by performing 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 E550's windshield wiper blades, head and tail lights, filters, fluid levels, tires, and alignment.

Could your 2012 Mercedes-Benz E550 be ready for a new battery? Batteries generally need to be replaced every three to five years. Yours may need to be replaced sooner depending on your driving habits and climate. Short trips and extreme temperatures can shorten the overall life expectancy of your Mercedes-Benz E550 battery. Sure, you could wait until your battery is completely dead, but it’s a much wiser decision to replace it before you need to. Otherwise, you may find yourself (and your trusty E550) stuck in the middle of nowhere. Your Mercedes-Benz E550 could quickly go from being a trusty ride to a source of stress in a matter of minutes.

Staying on schedule for battery replacements and motor oil changes can support your engine’s overall performance and keep your 2012 Mercedes-Benz E550 running newer, longer. Reference the chart toward the top of the page if you're not sure about the optimal oil change intervals for your 2012 E550.

If you fall behind on routine Mercedes-Benz E550 maintenance (or worse, don’t do it at all!), you might find yourself with a hot mess on your hands – quite literally.
