Mercedes-Benz recommends having your 2017 Mercedes-Benz S550’s motor oil changed at regular intervals. Check out mileage and month info for your S550 in the above table. Your S550 may need an oil change right away if your check engine/oil change light is on, you hear engine knocking, sense an oil smell in the cabin, or see an excess amount of vehicle exhaust. You may also need an oil change more frequently than Mercedes-Benz recommends if you haul heavy loads, drive in dusty areas, go off-roading a lot, or drive at low speeds for long distances. More frequent oil changes generally won't harm your Mercedes-Benz S550.

Oil Change Q&A for Your 2017 Mercedes-Benz S550

  • Why check the motor oil level in my Mercedes-Benz S550? Engine oil is a lubricant for the moving parts in your engine. If your oil runs low, these components can grind against each other, overheat, and cause your Mercedes-Benz S550 engine to fail. That’s why you should check your oil and get it changed regularly.
  • How hard is it to change Mercedes-Benz S550 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 exhaust smoke gray or blue? You could have an oil leak and have a case of burning oil. 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 old cylinder walls.
  • Who offers Mercedes-Benz S550 oil changes? You can count on Firestone Complete Auto Care for your Mercedes-Benz S550 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 S550 oil light comes on? If you’re overdue for an oil change, it might trigger your Mercedes-Benz S550 oil change reminder light. If the oil pressure light is illuminated, it could be due to low engine oil, a failing oil pump, a malfunctioning oil pressure sensor, or a clogged oil filter.
  • Do I need to replace my S550’s oil filter when changing my oil? You should replace your Mercedes-Benz S550 during each oil change. The filter captures debris and contaminants to help keep your oil clean, which means the filter gets dirty. If you skip replacing the filter, you’ll contaminate your new oil with the dirty filter.
