Take care of your Mercedes-Benz G500 and it'll take care of you. If you put in the effort to keep up with proper maintenance, your G500 could be on the road well past the 200,000 mile mark. So, you want to care for your car, but you’re not sure when to get certain services. There's no need to guess when it's time to get G500 maintenance, and no need to wait until something goes wrong.

Mercedes-Benz knows your vehicle inside and out (they made it, after all!), so they’ve designed this schedule with your car’s unique needs in mind. 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 tire rotations, vital fluid checks/exchanges, filter changes, brake pad replacement, and oil changes. Keeping up with routine service appointments is a great way to keep your G500 running for longer, decrease your risk of dangerous malfunctions on the road, and help you avoid expensive repairs caused by 2004 Mercedes-Benz G500 problems later.

Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 2004 Mercedes-Benz G500 for factory-recommended routine maintenance and a skilled technician will start the appointment with a Courtesy Check. A Courtesy Check helps "set the stage" for your service and catch any small problems before they turn into big repairs. Each Courtesy Check includes a free battery test and an inspection of your G500's windshield wiper blades, head and tail lights, filters, fluid levels, tires, and alignment.

Think you could be due for a new battery in your 2004 Mercedes-Benz G500? Batteries generally need to be replaced every three to five years.

Extremely hot or cold temperatures can take a toll on your Mercedes-Benz G500 battery, and so can frequent short drives. 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 G500) stuck in the middle of nowhere. Your Mercedes-Benz G500 could quickly go from being a trusty ride to a source of stress in a matter of minutes.
