Overview of Essential Mercedes-Benz SLK350 Maintenance Needs

Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for manufacturer-recommended routine maintenance on your 2009 Mercedes-Benz SLK350 and our technicians will jump right in with a Courtesy Check. This Courtesy Check can establish a baseline of what may need to be addressed during your service appointment. Every Courtesy Check will include a visual inspection of your SLK350. We’ll check your head and tail lights, fluid levels, filters, tires (and their alignment!), and windshield wiper blades. We’ll also perform a free battery check to determine your battery’s charge level.

Maybe it's time to find a new auto battery for your 2009 Mercedes-Benz SLK350. Batteries generally need to be replaced every three to five years. Depending on the climate where you live and your habits while driving, your SLK350 may need a replacement battery sooner. Short trips and extreme temperatures can shorten the overall life expectancy of your Mercedes-Benz SLK350 battery. 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. If you keep driving on a battery that can't hold a charge, you run the risk of being stranded when your battery finally gives out (and no one can predict where that might be!). Your Mercedes-Benz SLK350 won't be going anywhere without a strong battery.

Staying on schedule for battery replacements and motor oil changes can help your 2009 Mercedes-Benz SLK350's engine run smoother. To learn how often Mercedes-Benz recommends you have the oil changed in your 2009 SLK350, check out the information table at the beginning of this page. Don’t forget, though, that weather conditions in your area or your personal driving habits can affect this interval. Come in and speak with a Firestone Complete Auto Care technician to find out how often to change your oil. We'll also help you understand what type of oil to use for your 2009 Mercedes-Benz SLK350.

Routine upkeep for your Mercedes-Benz SLK350 suspension and steering system can not only ensure a smooth ride; it can also help you maintain control of your car in compromised road conditions.

  • What do I do if I hit a pothole in my Mercedes-Benz SLK350? Check your car for pothole damage!

Potholes can also knock your car out of alignment, so have your alignment checked if you suspect you’ve driven over a rough patch of road lately.
