2014 Mercedes-Benz SL550 Scheduled Maintenance

When it comes to your Mercedes-Benz SL550, how you treat your car makes all the difference in its performance. If you put in the effort to keep up with proper maintenance, your SL550 could be on the road well past the 200,000 mile mark. Not an expert in what services your car needs and when? No problem. Instead of waiting for an issue to arise with your SL550, you can stay ahead of problems before they even begin. Just follow your 2014 Mercedes-Benz SL550 maintenance schedule!

Mercedes-Benz knows your vehicle inside and out (they made it, after all!), so they’ve designed this schedule with your car’s unique needs in mind. 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 tire rotations, vital fluid checks/exchanges, filter changes, brake pad replacement, and oil changes. Keeping up with routine service appointments is a great way to keep your SL550 running for longer, keep you safer on the road, and help you avoid expensive repairs caused by 2014 Mercedes-Benz SL550 problems later.

Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 2014 Mercedes-Benz SL550 for factory-recommended routine maintenance and an expert technician will begin by performing a Courtesy Check. This Courtesy Check can establish a baseline of what may need to be addressed during your service appointment. During a Courtesy Check, we’ll always check your battery, then we’ll move on to inspect your SL550’s head and tail lights, tires, fluid levels, alignment, and windshield wipers.

Maybe it's time to find a new auto battery for your 2014 Mercedes-Benz SL550. In general, car batteries only last three to five years. Yours may need to be replaced sooner depending on your driving habits and climate. Extremely hot or cold temperatures can take a toll on your Mercedes-Benz SL550 battery, and so can frequent short drives. Sure, you could wait until your battery is completely dead, but it’s a much wiser decision to replace it before you need to. Otherwise, you may find yourself (and your trusty SL550) stuck in the middle of nowhere. Your Mercedes-Benz SL550 won’t even be able to start with a weak battery, much less get you where you need to go.
