2021 Mercedes-Benz S500 Scheduled Maintenance

When it comes to your Mercedes-Benz S500, how you treat your car makes all the difference in its performance. With proactive maintenance, your S500 could be on the road well past the 200,000 mile mark. So, you want to care for your car, but you’re not sure when to get certain services. Instead of waiting for an issue to arise with your S500, you can stay ahead of problems before they even begin. Just follow your 2021 Mercedes-Benz S500 maintenance schedule!

The recommended maintenance schedule is put together by Mercedes-Benz, your vehicle manufacturer. Depending on driving conditions and climate in your area (as well as other contributing factors, like your personal travel habits), your car’s scheduled maintenance needs may vary; in most cases, though, recommended maintenance will consist of services like fluid exchanges, filter changes, new brake pads, oil changes, and tire rotations. Staying on track with routine service appointments can help your S500 perform better, decrease your risk of dangerous malfunctions on the road, and maybe even save you the headache of dealing with common 2021 Mercedes-Benz S500 problems in the future.

Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for manufacturer-recommended routine maintenance on your 2021 Mercedes-Benz S500 and an expert technician will begin by performing a Courtesy Check. This Courtesy Check can establish a baseline of what may need to be addressed during your service appointment. Every Courtesy Check will include a visual inspection of your S500. We’ll check your head and tail lights, fluid levels, filters, tires (and their alignment!), and windshield wiper blades. We’ll also perform a free battery check to determine your battery’s charge level.

Think you could be due for a new battery in your 2021 Mercedes-Benz S500? In general, car batteries only last three to five years. Yours may need to be replaced sooner depending on your driving habits and climate. Taking short trips or exposing your car to extreme temperatures (like in the dead of winter or heat of summer) could reduce the life expectancy of your Mercedes-Benz S500 battery. While you could wait until your battery fails and you hear the dreaded "click," you're better off replacing it before then! If you keep driving on a battery that can't hold a charge, you run the risk of being stranded when your battery finally gives out (and no one can predict where that might be!). Your Mercedes-Benz S500 won’t even be able to start with a weak battery, much less get you where you need to go.

In addition to maintaining a strong battery, investing in regular oil changes can help your 2021 Mercedes-Benz S500's engine run smoother. Reference the chart toward the top of the page if you're not sure about the optimal oil change intervals for your 2021 S500. Keep in mind that your oil change interval could be different given your driving style and climate. Come in and speak with a Firestone Complete Auto Care technician to find out how often to change your oil. We can also answer any questions you have about what type of oil to use for your 2021 Mercedes-Benz S500.

If you fall behind on routine Mercedes-Benz S500 maintenance (or worse, don’t do it at all!), you might find yourself with a hot mess on your hands – quite literally.
