Tune Into Your Mercedes-Benz GL450

Is it time for an engine tune-up? If you're the type of driver who waits for something to go wrong with your vehicle, it could be time for a new way of doing things, especially if you want your 2013 Mercedes-Benz GL450’s engine to last for a long time. Routine engine tune-ups can bring power back to your GL450. Tune-ups give your engine a boost in efficiency, which can mean better fuel economy (a win for you) and lower emissions (a win for the environment). When you take your car for regular engine tune-ups as recommended by Mercedes-Benz, you’re taking vital steps toward keeping your GL450’s engine running smoother, longer.

Routine Engine Tune-Up Service for Your Mercedes-Benz GL450

Your local Firestone Complete Auto Care offers a range of engine tune-up services for your 2013 Mercedes-Benz GL450. One option is the standard Firestone Tune-Up. It includes a complete visual inspection of engine components, installation of new spark plugs, and a lifetime warranty on parts*. The second service focuses on your GL450's filters, specifically replacing the air filter and fuel filter. Yet another service is a fuel system cleaning process, which involves removing varnish, dirt, and carbon deposits that have built up inside the fuel injectors, throttle body, and throttle plate in your GL450. The result? Restored fuel system performance. Keep in mind that your GL450's mileage and maintenance history can uniquely impact its tune-up needs. A one-size-fits-all engine tune-up procedure doesn’t necessarily exist. Talk to a technician about your driving style, mileage, and service history to learn more about your vehicle's specific needs.

Questions About 2013 Mercedes-Benz GL450 Engine Tune-Ups

  • Will it hurt my Mercedes-Benz GL450 to drive with old spark plugs? Replace spark plugs on time or about every 30,000 miles or so. Spark plugs are small but mighty. The spark of electricity that the plug emits across a small gap creates the ignition for the combustion needed to start your car. Without that spark, your car won't start.
  • What do I do if I see a pool of liquid under my Mercedes-Benz GL450? Puddles could indicate that your vehicle is leaking coolant, oil, or brake fluid. Ignoring these leaks can lead to permanent engine damage, so address these symptoms ASAP with a tune-up service.
  • Are some driving habits better for my Mercedes-Benz GL450 engine than others? Hard starts and stops put extra wear and tear on engine components. Smooth, gradual starts and stops, on the other hand, are a great way to help your engine run better. They can also help maximize your fuel economy.
  • I need a Mercedes-Benz GL450 tune-up. Where can I get on? At the nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care! We’re ready to help service, maintain, and repair your Mercedes-Benz GL450.
  • How frequently do the fuel injectors in my Mercedes-Benz GL450 need to be cleaned? Factors like fuel type and driving conditions can affect how frequently you need to clean your GL450 fuel injectors. Some manufacturers recommend a fuel system cleaning as part of routine maintenance, or as needed if your vehicle is showing signs of poor fuel system performance.
