Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for manufacturer-recommended routine maintenance on your 2008 Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG and an expert technician will begin by performing a Courtesy Check. The Courtesy Check helps us see what we’re working with under the hood, and allows us to alert you to any potential problems before they worsen. Each Courtesy Check includes a free battery test and an inspection of your SL65 AMG's windshield wiper blades, head and tail lights, filters, fluid levels, tires, and alignment.

Could your 2008 Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG be ready for a new battery? Batteries generally need to be replaced every three to five years. Yours may need to be replaced sooner depending on your driving habits and climate. Short trips and extreme temperatures can shorten the overall life expectancy of your Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG battery. While you could wait until your battery fails and you hear the dreaded "click," you're better off replacing it before then! Otherwise, your battery could die unexpectedly, leaving you and your SL65 AMG stranded. Your Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG won’t even be able to start with a weak battery, much less get you where you need to go.
