When to Change 2003 Mercedes-Benz S55 AMG Engine Oil

Looking for oil change recommendations for your 2003 Mercedes-Benz S55 AMG? Turn to Firestone Complete Auto Care! We're experts in more than tires. We know the ins and outs of 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 2003 Mercedes-Benz S55 AMG’s motor oil changed at regular intervals. Check the interval for your vehicle mileage in the table above. No matter the mileage, your S55 AMG may need its oil changed ASAP if your check engine light is on, you hear knock knock knock coming from the engine, smell oil inside the car, 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, frequent dusty roads, enjoy off-roading, or go at low speeds on long distance trips. Generally, getting more frequent oil changes won’t hurt your Mercedes-Benz S55 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 S55 AMG Need?

Whether you need high mileage oil, synthetic oil, or conventional oil, you'll find the right 2003 Mercedes-Benz S55 AMG motor oil at Firestone Complete Auto Care. Mercedes-Benz has most likely outlined either synthetic or conventional as the best motor oil for your 2003 S55 AMG. Motor oil reduces friction between engine components, regulate engine temperature, and keep harmful substances from building up inside the engine. During an oil change, a technician will change your S55 AMG's oil, replace and recycle the old 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 S55 AMG by considering your driving style, and mileage.

Oil Change Q&A for Your 2003 Mercedes-Benz S55 AMG

  • What can low oil do to my Mercedes-Benz S55 AMG engine? Motor oil lubricates important engine parts. If your oil reservoir is low or empty, these parts can grind together, generate too much heat, and cause your Mercedes-Benz S55 AMG engine to fail. That’s why it’s best to check your oil levels and get your oil changed regularly.
  • Can I change my Mercedes-Benz S55 AMG oil at home? Changing engine oil at home isn’t as simple as it’s made out to be. You’ll have to figure out how to properly dispose of the oil and buy special tools. 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 S55 AMG exhaust smoke grayish or blue? Your engine could be burning oil due to a leak. Looks like it’s time for a professional to take a look. A leak can be caused by a variety of issues including faulty valve seals, fried piston rings, or damaged cylinder walls.
  • Who can change the oil on my Mercedes-Benz S55 AMG? You can count on Firestone Complete Auto Care for your Mercedes-Benz S55 AMG oil change, oil filter replacement, oil leak diagnostics, and more! Our expert technicians will even advise the right oil for your vehicle.
  • What can cause the oil light on my Mercedes-Benz S55 AMG to illuminate? Your Mercedes-Benz S55 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.
  • Does my S55 AMG's oil filter need to be changed during my oil change? Every time you change the oil in your Mercedes-Benz S55 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.
