Tune Into Your Mercedes-Benz S65 AMG

Is your engine overdue for a tune-up? If you tend to ignore your car until something goes wrong, it might be time to change your ways, especially if you want your 2012 Mercedes-Benz S65 AMG’s engine to last for a long time. Routine engine tune-ups can bring power back to your S65 AMG. They're designed to help your engine start easier and run more efficiently, which can mean better fuel economy (a win for you) and lower emissions (a win for the environment). When you get routine engine tune-ups based on Mercedes-Benz's recommendations, you invest in your S65 AMG's long-term health and engine performance.

Engine Tune-Up for Mercedes-Benz S65 AMG

The Firestone Complete Auto Care location in your community offers several Mercedes-Benz S65 AMG engine tune-up services. The first is the standard Firestone Tune-Up. This includes the installation of new spark plugs and a visual inspection of your engine’s components, plus a lifetime warranty on parts*. The second service focuses on your S65 AMG's filters, specifically replacing the air filter and fuel filter. Our third service is a thorough cleaning of the fuel system. During this type of tune-up, we use a three-step process to get rid of harmful varnish, dirt, and carbon deposit buildup in your S65 AMG’s fuel injectors, throttle body, and throttle plate. This goes a long way in boosting your fuel system’s overall performance. Keep in mind that your S65 AMG's mileage and maintenance history can uniquely impact its tune-up needs. A one-size-fits-all engine tune-up procedure doesn’t necessarily exist. Ask one of our technicians what your vehicle needs, based on your driving habits and your car’s current condition.

2012 Mercedes-Benz S65 AMG Engine Tune-Up Q&A

  • Will it hurt my Mercedes-Benz S65 AMG to drive with old spark plugs? Replace spark plugs on time or about every 30,000 miles or so. Spark plugs are small but mighty. The spark of electricity that the plug emits across a small gap creates the ignition for the combustion needed to start your car. Without that spark, your car won't start.
  • What does a puddle underneath my Mercedes-Benz S65 AMG mean? Don't ignore puddles of fluid under your Mercedes-Benz S65 AMG. It could signal a coolant leak, brake fluid leak, or an oil leak. Let any one of these leaks linger and it could cause engine damage.
  • Are hard starts and stops bad for my Mercedes-Benz S65 AMG engine? Hard starts and stops put extra wear and tear on engine components. Smooth, gradual starts and stops, on the other hand, are a great way to help your engine run better. They can also help maximize your fuel economy.
