Not sure how or where to get your Mercedes-Benz S63 AMG’s oil changed? Turn to Firestone Complete Auto Care! We're experts in more than tires. We know all about motor oil, too. We couldn’t put it better than our technician, Brianna. She likes to explain to customers that, “Oil is the blood of the engine. It’s the #1 thing you can do for your car.”

Mercedes-Benz recommends having your 2012 Mercedes-Benz S63 AMG’s motor oil changed at regular intervals. See mileage and month specifics in the above table. No matter the mileage, your S63 AMG may need its oil changed ASAP if your check engine light is on, you hear knock knock knock coming from the engine, sense an oil smell in the cabin, or notice excess vehicle 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, adventure off-road, or go long distances at low speeds. In general, being extra-diligent about oil changes won’t damage your Mercedes-Benz S63 AMG. In fact, every oil change is an opportunity to diagnose and treat any other issues, such as bad brakes or a failing battery.

2012 Mercedes-Benz S63 AMG Oil Change Q&A

  • Why check the motor oil level in my Mercedes-Benz S63 AMG? Motor oil lubricates important engine parts.

  • Why is my Mercedes-Benz S63 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. The leak could be caused by several issues like leaking valve seals, blown piston rings, or worn cylinder walls.
