Mercedes-Benz recommends changing your 2011 S550’s oil at regular intervals. See mileage and month specifics in the above table.

Generally, getting more frequent oil changes won’t hurt your Mercedes-Benz S550. Each oil change is actually another chance to check and resolve other car issues, such as worn brake pads or tire treads.
