Essential Maintenance to Keep Your Mercedes-Benz SLK280 Running Newer, Longer

Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 2007 Mercedes-Benz SLK280 for factory-recommended routine maintenance and our technicians will jump right in with a Courtesy Check. A Courtesy Check helps "set the stage" for your service and catch any small problems before they turn into big repairs. Each Courtesy Check includes a free battery test and an inspection of your SLK280's windshield wiper blades, head and tail lights, filters, fluid levels, tires, and alignment.

Could your 2007 Mercedes-Benz SLK280 be ready for a new battery? 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 SLK280 battery, and so can frequent short drives. It can be tempting to try and get as much life out of your battery as possible, but it’s smart to check it regularly and replace it before it gets too weak. Otherwise, your battery could die unexpectedly, leaving you and your SLK280 stranded. Your Mercedes-Benz SLK280 won’t even be able to start with a weak battery, much less get you where you need to go.

Ensuring you always have a well-charged battery can help your car’s overall performance, and regularly scheduled oil changes can prevent premature wear on your 2007 Mercedes-Benz SLK280 engine. See Mercedes-Benz's recommendations for oil change intervals for your 2007 SLK280 in the chart at the top of this page. Don’t forget, though, that weather conditions in your area or your personal driving habits can affect this interval. Talk to a Firestone Complete Auto Care technician to know when to change your oil. We'll also help you understand what type of oil to use for your 2007 Mercedes-Benz SLK280.

Routine upkeep for your Mercedes-Benz SLK280 suspension and steering system can improve ride comfort and help you maintain control of your vehicle.
