2012 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Scheduled Maintenance

You want your Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG to last as long as possible. With the right maintenance at the right time, your SLS AMG has a good chance of hitting 200,000 miles or more. So, you want to care for your car, but you’re not sure when to get certain services. It can be overwhelming, but fortunately, there’s a resource that takes the guesswork out of routine SLS AMG maintenance. Rely on the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been created just for your 2012 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG!

This recommended maintenance schedule is written by the auto manufacturer, Mercedes-Benz themselves. 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; however, recommended maintenance usually includes services like fluid exchanges, filter changes, new brake pads, oil changes, and tire rotations. Scheduling routine service appointments is one of the best ways to help extend your SLS AMG's life, decrease your risk of dangerous malfunctions on the road, and maybe even save you the headache of dealing with common 2012 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG problems in the future.

Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 2012 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG for factory-recommended routine maintenance and our technicians will jump right in with a Courtesy Check. The Courtesy Check helps us see what we’re working with under the hood, and allows us to alert you to any potential problems before they worsen. Every Courtesy Check will include a visual inspection of your SLS AMG. 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 2012 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG. In general, car batteries only last three to five years. Yours may need to be replaced sooner depending on your driving habits and climate. Short trips and extreme temperatures can shorten the overall life expectancy of your Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG battery. While you could wait until your battery fails and you hear the dreaded "click," you're better off replacing it before then! Otherwise, you may find yourself (and your trusty SLS AMG) stuck in the middle of nowhere. Your Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG won’t even be able to start with a weak battery, much less get you where you need to go.

In addition to maintaining a strong battery, investing in regular oil changes can prevent premature wear on your 2012 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG engine. Reference the chart toward the top of the page if you're not sure about the optimal oil change intervals for your 2012 SLS AMG. Keep in mind that your oil change interval could be different given your driving style and climate. Talk to a Firestone Complete Auto Care technician to know when to change your oil. Not sure what type of oil to use for your 2012 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG? We can help with that, too!

This can include things like power steering fluid replacement, wheel alignment adjustments, replacement of struts and wheel bearings, and ball joint lubrication. Prevent damage or premature wear and tear on your Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG's steering system with regular maintenance.

Without routine Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG maintenance, you (and your engine) could quickly lose your cool when there's a problem on the road–especially if that problem is an overheated engine or broken A/C.
