Mercedes-Benz recommends having your 2020 Mercedes-Benz GLA250’s motor oil changed at regular intervals. See mileage and month specifics in the above table.

Getting a professional oil change reduces the risk of something going wrong during the service, but also help your car perform down the road.
  • Why is my Mercedes-Benz GLA250 spewing blue or gray exhaust smoke? You could have an oil leak and have a case of burning oil. It may be time for a pro to take a look. The leak could be caused by several issues like leaking valve seals, damaged piston rings, or worn cylinder walls.
