1999 Mercedes-Benz SL600 Scheduled Maintenance

You want your Mercedes-Benz SL600 to last as long as possible. If you put in the effort to keep up with proper maintenance, your SL600 has a good chance of hitting 200,000 miles or more. But how do you know what service to get and when? Instead of waiting for an issue to arise with your SL600, you can stay ahead of problems before they even begin. Just follow your 1999 Mercedes-Benz SL600 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. Scheduled maintenance services can vary depending on driving conditions, climate, and other factors; in most cases, though, recommended maintenance will consist of services like fluid exchanges, filter changes, new brake pads, oil changes, and tire rotations. Scheduling routine service appointments is one of the best ways to help extend your SL600's life, keep you safer on the road, and maybe even save you the headache of dealing with common 1999 Mercedes-Benz SL600 problems in the future.

Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 1999 Mercedes-Benz SL600 for factory-recommended routine maintenance and a skilled technician will start the appointment with a Courtesy Check. This Courtesy Check can establish a baseline of what may need to be addressed during your service appointment. Each Courtesy Check includes a free battery test and an inspection of your SL600's windshield wiper blades, head and tail lights, filters, fluid levels, tires, and alignment.

Think you could be due for a new battery in your 1999 Mercedes-Benz SL600? In general, car batteries only last three to five years. There’s a chance you’ll need a replacement sooner, but it depends on the climate in your area as well as your driving habits. Extremely hot or cold temperatures can take a toll on your Mercedes-Benz SL600 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, your battery could die unexpectedly, leaving you and your SL600 stranded. Your Mercedes-Benz SL600 won't be going anywhere without a strong battery.

Staying on schedule for battery replacements and motor oil changes can support your engine’s overall performance and keep your 1999 Mercedes-Benz SL600 running newer, longer. See Mercedes-Benz's recommendations for oil change intervals for your 1999 SL600 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. A Firestone Complete Auto Care technician will be happy to help you determine the best oil change frequency for your car’s needs. We'll also help you understand what type of oil to use for your 1999 Mercedes-Benz SL600.

If you fall behind on routine Mercedes-Benz SL600 maintenance (or worse, don’t do it at all!), you (and your engine) could quickly lose your cool when there's a problem on the road–especially if that problem is an overheated engine or broken A/C.
