Take care of your Mercedes-Benz SL500 and it'll take care of you. With the right maintenance at the right time, you could hit 200,000 miles (or beyond!) in your SL500. But how do you know what service to get and when? Instead of waiting for an issue to arise with your SL500, you can stay ahead of problems before they even begin. It’s as easy as following the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been written specifically for your 1995 Mercedes-Benz SL500!

This recommended maintenance schedule is written by the auto manufacturer, Mercedes-Benz themselves. Depending on driving conditions and climate in your area (as well as other contributing factors, like your personal travel habits), your car’s scheduled maintenance needs may vary; however, recommended maintenance usually includes services like oil changes, tire rotations, brake pad replacement, filter changes, and fluid checks and exchanges. Keeping up with routine service appointments is a great way to keep your SL500 running for longer, keep you safer on the road, and help you avoid expensive repairs caused by 1995 Mercedes-Benz SL500 problems later.

Overview of Essential Mercedes-Benz SL500 Maintenance Needs

Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 1995 Mercedes-Benz SL500 for factory-recommended routine maintenance and our technicians will jump right in with a Courtesy Check. A Courtesy Check helps "set the stage" for your service and catch any small problems before they turn into big repairs. During a Courtesy Check, we’ll always check your battery, then we’ll move on to inspect your SL500’s head and tail lights, tires, fluid levels, alignment, and windshield wipers.

Could your 1995 Mercedes-Benz SL500 be ready for a new battery? If your current battery is more than three years old, it may be time for a replacement (batteries typically last somewhere between three and five years). Depending on the climate where you live and your habits while driving, your SL500 may need a replacement battery sooner. Extremely hot or cold temperatures can take a toll on your Mercedes-Benz SL500 battery, and so can frequent short drives. While you could wait until your battery fails and you hear the dreaded "click," you're better off replacing it before then! If you keep driving on a battery that can't hold a charge, you run the risk of being stranded when your battery finally gives out (and no one can predict where that might be!). Your Mercedes-Benz SL500 won’t even be able to start with a weak battery, much less get you where you need to go.

In addition to maintaining a strong battery, investing in regular oil changes can help your 1995 Mercedes-Benz SL500's engine run smoother. See Mercedes-Benz's recommendations for oil change intervals for your 1995 SL500 in the chart at the top of this page. Remember, things like average outside temperature or frequency of trips could increase or decrease this interval for your specific vehicle. Talk to a Firestone Complete Auto Care technician to know when to change your oil. Not sure what type of oil to use for your 1995 Mercedes-Benz SL500? We can help with that, too!

Maintaining your Mercedes-Benz SL500 steering and suspension system can improve ride comfort and help you maintain control of your vehicle. Don’t let a misalignment or pulling steering wheel put you in danger. Bring your car to Firestone Complete Auto Care, where our technicians can check your car’s steering components and, if necessary, perform Mercedes-Benz SL500 suspension and steering services. These might include wheel alignment, power steering fluid flushes and replenishments, ball joint lubrication, wheel bearing replacement, and strut replacement. Prevent damage or premature wear and tear on your Mercedes-Benz SL500's steering system with regular maintenance.

If you skip recommended Mercedes-Benz SL500 services, you could be feeling the heat on the road – literally! A malfunctioning A/C system or overheating engine can wreak havoc on your car. We can help you with all those issues. Our technicians have the knowledge and tools to repair and maintain the heating and cooling systems for your Mercedes-Benz SL500’s engine, and we can service your A/C system, too.
