Your 2016 GLA45 AMG’s oil should be changed according to Mercedes-Benz’s recommended oil change intervals. Check out mileage and month info for your GLA45 AMG in the above table. Outside of Mercedes-Benz-recommended oil change intervals, your GLA45 AMG may need an oil change if your check engine light is on, you hear knocking sounds coming from the engine, smell oil inside the vehicle, or notice an unusual amount of exhaust. You may also need an oil change more frequently than Mercedes-Benz recommends if you haul heavy loads, frequent dusty roads, enjoy off-roading, or go long distances at low speeds. Generally, getting more frequent oil changes won’t hurt your Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG. In fact, more frequent oil changes give our technicians more opportunities to catch and alert you to any issues, like worn brake pads or a weak battery.

2016 Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG Oil Change Q&A

  • Why check the motor oil level in my Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG? Engine oil lubricates moving parts in your engine. If your oil reservoir is low or empty, these components can grind against each other, overheat, and eventually lead to Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG engine failure. That’s why it’s best to check your oil levels and get your oil changed regularly.
  • Can I change my Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG oil at home? First off, changing your own oil isn’t as easy as you’d think. You’ll have to buy special tools and figure out a way to recycle the old oil properly. Having your oil professionally changed reduces the chances of something going wrong with the oil change, but it’ll also help your car perform smoothly down the road.
  • Why is my Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG spewing blue or gray exhaust smoke? Your engine could be burning oil due to a leak. Time to have a qualified technician check things out. A leak can be caused by a variety of issues including faulty valve seals, blown piston rings, or worn cylinder walls.
  • Who can change the oil on my Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG? Turn to Firestone Complete Auto Care for Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG oil changes. In addition to changing your oil, our experienced technicians also perform oil filter replacements, troubleshoot oil leaks, and suggest the correct oil to help keep your engine performing its best.
  • What can cause the oil light on my Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG to illuminate? Your Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG oil change reminder light may come on if you're overdue for an oil change. The oil pressure light will typically come on if the oil level in the engine is too low, the oil pump is failing, you have a clogged oil filter, or there's a faulty oil pressure sensor.
  • Do I need to change my GLA45 AMG's oil filter when I get an oil change? Every time you change the oil in your Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG, you should also replace the oil filter. Otherwise, you risk contaminating your brand-new oil with the dirt and debris built up in your old filter.
