When to Change 2008 Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG Engine Oil

Looking for oil change recommendations for your 2008 Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG? Turn to Firestone Complete Auto Care! We are experts in car care — not just tires. We know the ins and outs of motor oil, too. We couldn’t put it better than our technician, Brianna. She likes to explain to customers that, “Oil is the blood of the engine. It’s the #1 thing you can do for your car.”

Mercedes-Benz recommends changing your 2008 SL65 AMG’s oil at regular intervals. Check out mileage and month info for your SL65 AMG in the above table. No matter the mileage, your SL65 AMG may need its oil changed ASAP if your check engine light is on, you hear knock knock knock coming from the engine, smell oil inside the vehicle, or notice an unusual amount of exhaust. You might need an oil change more frequently than what’s recommended by Mercedes-Benz if you regularly haul heavy loads, drive in dusty areas, go off-roading a lot, or drive at low speeds for long distances. More frequent oil changes generally won't harm your Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG. Each oil change is actually another chance to check and resolve other car issues, such as worn brake pads or tire treads.

2008 Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG Oil Change Q&A

  • Should I check my Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG motor oil level? Engine oil is a lubricant for the moving parts in your engine. If you're low or out of oil, engine parts can grind together, generate too much heat, and cause your SL65 AMG’s engine to fail. That’s why it’s best to check your oil levels and get your oil changed regularly.
  • How hard is it to change Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG oil at home? Changing your own oil isn't as convenient as you might think. You’ll have to figure out how to properly dispose of the oil and buy special tools. 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? Your engine could be burning oil due to a leak. Time to have a qualified technician check things out. The leak could be caused by several issues like leaking valve seals, damaged piston rings, or damaged cylinder walls.
  • Where can I get Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG oil changes? Turn to Firestone Complete Auto Care for Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG oil changes. In addition to changing your oil, our experienced technicians also perform oil filter replacements, troubleshoot oil leaks, and suggest the correct oil to help keep your engine performing its best.
  • 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 replace my SL65 AMG’s oil filter when changing my oil? You should replace your Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG during each oil change. The filter captures debris and contaminants to help keep your oil clean, which means the filter gets dirty. If you skip replacing the filter, you’ll contaminate your new oil with the dirty filter.
