Mercedes-Benz recommends changing your 2005 SL65 AMG’s oil at regular intervals. Check out mileage and month info for your SL65 AMG in the above table.

Oil Change Q&A for Your 2005 Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG

  • Should I check my Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG motor oil level? Motor oil lubricates important engine parts. If your oil runs low, these parts can grind together, overheat, and cause your Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG engine to fail. That’s why you’re better off checking your oil levels and investing in routine lube services.
  • Can I change my Mercedes-Benz oil on my own? Changing your own oil isn't as convenient as you might think. You’ll have to buy special tools and figure out a way to recycle the old oil properly. Getting a professional oil change reduces the risk of something going wrong during the service, but it’ll also help your car perform smoothly down the road.
  • Why is my Mercedes-Benz exhaust smoke gray or blue? You could have an oil leak and have a case of burning oil. Time to have a qualified technician check things out. The leak could be the result of worn valve seals, damaged piston rings, or old cylinder walls.
  • Who offers Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG oil changes? You can count on Firestone Complete Auto Care for your Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG oil change, oil filter replacement, oil leak diagnostics, and more! Our expert technicians will even advise the right oil for your vehicle.
  • Why is the oil light on in my Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG? If you’re overdue for an oil change, it might trigger your Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG oil change reminder light. If the oil pressure light is illuminated, it could be due to low engine oil, a failing oil pump, a malfunctioning oil pressure sensor, or a clogged oil filter.
  • Do I need to change my SL65 AMG's oil filter when I get an oil change? It’s highly advised you replace the oil filter in your Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG every time you change the oil. After all, what’s the point of changing our oil if you’re just going to send fresh, clean engine oil through an already dirty filter?
