When to Change 2021 Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG Engine Oil

Need more info about 2021 Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG oil changes? Get the advice you need at Firestone Complete Auto Care! We're experts in more than tires. We know all about motor oil, too. After all, like our maintenance technician Brianna says, “Oil is the blood of the engine. It’s the #1 thing you can do for your car.”

Mercedes-Benz recommends having your 2021 Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG’s motor oil changed at regular intervals. Check the interval for your vehicle mileage in the table above. Your GLA45 AMG may need an oil change right away if your check engine/oil change light is on, you hear knocking sounds coming from the engine, smell oil inside the vehicle, 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 terrain, enjoy off-roading, or go at low speeds on long distance trips. More frequent oil changes generally won't harm your Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG. Each oil change is actually another chance to check and resolve other car issues, such as worn brake pads or tire treads.

What Type of Oil Does My Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG Need?

Whether it’s synthetic, conventional, or a blend of both — your local Firestone Complete Auto Care has the right oil for your Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG. Mercedes-Benz has recommendations as to whether conventional or synthetic oil is the best motor oil for your 2021 GLA45 AMG. Motor oil reduces friction between engine components, keep the engine cool, and keep harmful substances from building up inside the engine. During your oil change service, one of our techs will change your GLA45 AMG’s oil, replace and recycle your used oil and filter, inspect all of your other filters, top-off important fluids, and visually inspect the rest of the vehicle. You can rest assured knowing that we seek to do what’s best for your GLA45 AMG by considering your driving habits, and the number of miles on your odometer.

2021 Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG Oil Change Questions

  • Should I check my Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG motor oil level? Motor oil lubricates important engine parts. If your oil runs low, engine parts can grind together, overheat, and cause your GLA45 AMG’s engine to fail. That’s why you should check your oil and get it changed regularly.
  • Can I change my Mercedes-Benz oil on my own? Changing your own oil isn't as convenient as you might think. You’ll have to buy special tools and figure out a way to recycle the old oil properly. Having your oil changed professionally can not only reduce the risk of something going wrong during the service, but it’ll also help your car perform smoothly down the road.
  • Why is my Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG exhaust smoke grayish or blue? 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 damaged cylinder walls.
  • Who can change the oil on my Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG? You can count on Firestone Complete Auto Care for your Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG oil change, oil filter replacement, oil leak diagnostics, and more! Our expert technicians will even advise the right oil for your vehicle.
  • What does it mean if my Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG oil light comes on? The oil change light in your Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG could be triggered by an overdue oil change. However, if the oil pressure light is on, you may be dealing with low engine oil, a failing oil pump, a clogged oil filter, or a malfunctioning oil pressure sensor.
  • Do I need to replace my GLA45 AMG’s oil filter when changing my oil? 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.
