Overview of Essential Mercedes-Benz SLK55 AMG Maintenance Needs

Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 2006 Mercedes-Benz SLK55 AMG for factory-recommended routine maintenance 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 SLK55 AMG’s head and tail lights, tires, fluid levels, alignment, and windshield wipers.

Think you could be due for a new battery in your 2006 Mercedes-Benz SLK55 AMG? If your current battery is more than three years old, it may be time for a replacement (batteries typically last somewhere between three and five years).

Short trips and extreme temperatures can shorten the overall life expectancy of your Mercedes-Benz SLK55 AMG battery.

Otherwise, your battery could die unexpectedly, leaving you and your SLK55 AMG stranded.
