Mercedes-Benz recommends having your 2006 Mercedes-Benz SLK55 AMG’s motor oil changed at regular intervals. Check the interval for your vehicle mileage in the table above. No matter the mileage, your SLK55 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 car, or notice excess vehicle 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, adventure off-road, or drive at low speeds for long distances. More frequent oil changes generally won't harm your Mercedes-Benz SLK55 AMG. In fact, every oil change is an opportunity to diagnose and treat any other issues, such as bad brakes or a failing battery.

2006 Mercedes-Benz SLK55 AMG Oil Change Q&A

  • What can low oil do to my Mercedes-Benz SLK55 AMG engine? Engine oil lubricates moving parts in your engine. If your oil reservoir is low or empty, engine parts can grind together, generate excess heat, and cause your Mercedes-Benz SLK55 AMG engine to fail. That’s why you’re better off checking your oil levels and investing in routine lube services.
  • How hard is it to change Mercedes-Benz SLK55 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. Having your oil changed professionally can not only reduce the risk of something going wrong during the service, but also with your vehicle down the road.
  • Why is my Mercedes-Benz SLK55 AMG spewing blue or gray exhaust smoke? Your engine could be burning oil due to a leak. Time to have a qualified technician check things out. A leak can be caused by a variety of issues including faulty valve seals, fried piston rings, or old cylinder walls.
  • Who does Mercedes-Benz SLK55 AMG oil changes? Firestone Complete Auto Care performs Mercedes-Benz SLK55 AMG oil changes and more! Our technicians also replace oil filters, troubleshoot oil leaks, and advise on the right oil for your ride.
  • Why is my Mercedes-Benz SLK55 AMG oil light illuminated? The oil change light in your Mercedes-Benz SLK55 AMG could be triggered by an overdue oil change. However, if the oil pressure light is on, you may be dealing with low engine oil, a failing oil pump, a clogged oil filter, or a malfunctioning oil pressure sensor.
  • Do I need to change my SLK55 AMG's oil filter when I get an oil change? It's recommended that you replace your Mercedes-Benz SLK55 AMG oil filter with every oil change. Otherwise, you send fresh, clean motor oil through a dirty filter. That's like putting on muddy socks after a shower.
