Take care of your Mercedes-Benz SLK300 and it'll take care of you. With proactive maintenance, you could hit 200,000 miles (or beyond!) in your SLK300. So, you want to care for your car, but you’re not sure when to get certain services. Instead of waiting for an issue to arise with your SLK300, you can stay ahead of problems before they even begin. It’s as easy as following the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been written specifically for your 2016 Mercedes-Benz SLK300!
The recommended maintenance schedule is put together by Mercedes-Benz, your vehicle manufacturer. Depending on driving conditions and climate in your area (as well as other contributing factors, like your personal travel habits), your car’s scheduled maintenance needs may vary; in most cases, though, recommended maintenance will consist of services like tire rotations, vital fluid checks/exchanges, filter changes, brake pad replacement, and oil changes. Scheduling routine service appointments is one of the best ways to help extend your SLK300's life, decrease your risk of dangerous malfunctions on the road, and help you avoid expensive repairs caused by 2016 Mercedes-Benz SLK300 problems later.
Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for manufacturer-recommended routine maintenance on your 2016 Mercedes-Benz SLK300 and an expert technician will begin by performing a Courtesy Check. A Courtesy Check helps "set the stage" for your service and catch any small problems before they turn into big repairs. During a Courtesy Check, we’ll always check your battery, then we’ll move on to inspect your SLK300’s head and tail lights, tires, fluid levels, alignment, and windshield wipers.
Think you could be due for a new battery in your 2016 Mercedes-Benz SLK300? 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. Extremely hot or cold temperatures can take a toll on your Mercedes-Benz SLK300 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 SLK300 stranded. Your Mercedes-Benz SLK300 could quickly go from being a trusty ride to a source of stress in a matter of minutes.
In addition to maintaining a strong battery, investing in regular oil changes can support your engine’s overall performance and keep your 2016 Mercedes-Benz SLK300 running newer, longer. See Mercedes-Benz's recommendations for oil change intervals for your 2016 SLK300 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.
