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.
Mercedes-Benz recommends changing your 2011 G550’s oil at regular intervals. See mileage and month specifics in the above table. Your G550 may need an oil change right away if your check engine/oil change light is on, you hear knocking sounds coming from the engine, sense an oil smell in the cabin, or notice an unusual amount of exhaust. You might need an oil change more frequently than what’s recommended by Mercedes-Benz if you regularly haul heavy loads, drive in dusty areas, go off-roading a lot, or drive at low speeds for long distances. In general, being extra-diligent about oil changes won’t damage your Mercedes-Benz G550. Each oil change is actually another chance to check and resolve other car issues, such as worn brake pads or tire treads.
Your local Firestone Complete Auto Care has the right 2011 Mercedes-Benz G550 motor oil: either synthetic or conventional. Mercedes-Benz has recommendations as to whether conventional or synthetic oil is the best motor oil for your 2011 G550.

During your oil change service, a technician will change your G550's oil, replace and recycle your used oil and filter, check all of your other filters, top-off important fluids, and visually inspect the rest of the vehicle.
