How Often to Get 2018 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500 Oil Changes

Looking for oil change recommendations for your 2018 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500? Get the advice you need at Firestone Complete Auto Care! We're experts in more than tires. We know the ins and outs of motor oil, too. After all, like our maintenance technician Brianna says, “Oil is the blood of the engine. It’s the #1 thing you can do for your car.”

Mercedes-Benz recommends having your 2018 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500’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 Sprinter 2500 may need an oil change if your check engine light is on, you hear engine knocking, smell oil inside the car, or see an excess amount of 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, enjoy off-roading, or go long distances at low speeds. In general, being extra-diligent about oil changes won’t damage your Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500. Each oil change is actually another chance to check and resolve other car issues, such as worn brake pads or tire treads.

Oil Change Q&A for Your 2018 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500

  • Why check the motor oil level in my Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500? Motor oil lubricates important engine parts. If you're low or out of oil, these components can grind against each other, overheat, and cause your Sprinter 2500’s engine to fail. That’s why you should check your oil and get it changed regularly.
  • Can I change my Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500 oil at home? First off, changing your own oil isn’t as easy as you’d think. It requires special tools and old oil must be disposed of 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 Sprinter 2500 exhaust smoke grayish or blue? You could have an oil leak and have a case of burning oil. Time to have a qualified technician check things out. A leak can be caused by a variety of issues including faulty valve seals, blown piston rings, or damaged cylinder walls.
  • Who offers Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500 oil changes? Firestone Complete Auto Care performs Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500 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 Sprinter 2500 oil light illuminated? The oil change light in your Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500 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 Sprinter 2500's oil filter when I get an oil change? It's recommended that you replace your Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500 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.
