When to Change 2012 Mercedes-Benz SLK55 AMG Engine Oil

Not sure how or where to get your Mercedes-Benz SLK55 AMG’s oil changed? Turn to Firestone Complete Auto Care! We are experts in car care — not just tires. We know all about motor oil, too. We couldn’t put it better than our technician, Brianna. She likes to explain to customers that, “Oil is the blood of the engine. It’s the #1 thing you can do for your car.”

Mercedes-Benz recommends having your 2012 Mercedes-Benz SLK55 AMG’s motor oil changed at regular intervals. Check the interval for your vehicle mileage in the table above. Outside of Mercedes-Benz-recommended oil change intervals, your SLK55 AMG may need an oil change if your check engine light is on, you hear knocking sounds coming from the engine, smell oil inside the car, or notice an unusual amount of exhaust. You may also need an oil change more frequently than Mercedes-Benz recommends if you haul heavy loads, drive in dusty areas, enjoy off-roading, or drive at low speeds for long distances. In general, being extra-diligent about oil changes won’t damage 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.

Oil Change Q&A for Your 2012 Mercedes-Benz SLK55 AMG

  • Why check the motor oil level in my Mercedes-Benz SLK55 AMG? Engine oil lubricates moving parts in your engine. If you're low or out of oil, engine parts can grind together, generate too much heat, and eventually lead to Mercedes-Benz SLK55 AMG engine failure. That’s why you should check your oil and get it changed regularly.
  • Can I change my Mercedes-Benz SLK55 AMG oil at home? First off, changing your own oil isn’t as easy as you’d think. You’ll have to buy special tools and figure out a way to recycle the old oil properly. Having your oil changed professionally can not only reduce the risk of something going wrong during the service, but also help your car perform down the road.
  • Why is my Mercedes-Benz SLK55 AMG spewing blue or gray exhaust smoke? There could be an oil leak and your engine is burning oil. Looks like it’s time for a professional to take a look. The leak could be the result of worn valve seals, blown piston rings, or worn cylinder walls.
  • Where can I get 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 the oil light on in my Mercedes-Benz SLK55 AMG? If you’re overdue for an oil change, it might trigger your Mercedes-Benz SLK55 AMG oil change reminder light.
