Mercedes-Benz recommends changing your 2003 ML350’s oil at regular intervals. Check out mileage and month info for your ML350 in the above table. Outside of Mercedes-Benz-recommended oil change intervals, your ML350 may need an oil change if your check engine light is on, you hear knocking sounds coming from the engine, smell oil inside the car, or see an excess amount of vehicle exhaust.

2003 Mercedes-Benz ML350 Oil Change Questions

  • Should I check my Mercedes-Benz ML350 motor oil level? Engine oil lubricates moving parts in your engine. If your oil reservoir is low or empty, engine parts can grind together, overheat, and cause your Mercedes-Benz ML350 engine to fail. That’s why you should check your oil and get it changed regularly.
  • Can I change my Mercedes-Benz ML350 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. Getting a professional oil change reduces 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 exhaust smoke gray or blue? 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 the result of worn valve seals, damaged piston rings, or old cylinder walls.
  • Who offers Mercedes-Benz ML350 oil changes? Firestone Complete Auto Care performs Mercedes-Benz ML350 oil changes and more! Our technicians also replace oil filters, troubleshoot oil leaks, and advise on the right oil for your ride.
  • Why is my Mercedes-Benz ML350 oil light illuminated? Your Mercedes-Benz ML350 oil change reminder light might illuminate if it’s been too long since your last oil change. On the other hand, the oil pressure light might illuminate due to a clogged oil filter, a faulty oil pressure sensor, low engine oil levels, or a malfunctioning oil pump.
  • Do I need to replace my ML350’s oil filter when changing my oil? It's recommended that you replace your Mercedes-Benz ML350 oil filter with every oil change. Otherwise, you send fresh, clean motor oil through a dirty filter. That's like putting on muddy socks after a shower.
