How Often to Get 2017 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500 Oil Changes

Looking for oil change recommendations for your 2017 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500? Get the advice you need at Firestone Complete Auto Care! We're experts in more than tires. Oil and lube services are also our specialties. 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.”

Your 2017 Sprinter 3500’s oil should be changed according to Mercedes-Benz’s recommended oil change intervals. Check out mileage and month info for your Sprinter 3500 in the above table. Outside of Mercedes-Benz-recommended oil change intervals, your Sprinter 3500 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 may also need an oil change more frequently than Mercedes-Benz recommends if you haul heavy loads, frequent dusty roads, go off-roading a lot, or go at low speeds on long distance trips. In general, being extra-diligent about oil changes won’t damage your Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500. Each oil change is actually another chance to check and resolve other car issues, such as worn brake pads or tire treads.

2017 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500 Oil Change Q&A

  • Should I check my Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500 motor oil level? Engine oil lubricates moving parts in your engine. If your oil reservoir is low or empty, these components can grind against each other, overheat, and cause your Sprinter 3500’s engine to fail. That’s why you should check your oil and get it changed regularly.
  • How hard is it to change Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500 oil at home? Changing your own oil isn't as convenient as you might think. You’ll have to buy special tools and figure out a way to recycle the old oil properly. Getting a professional oil change reduces the risk of something going wrong during the service, but it’ll also help your car perform smoothly down the road.
  • Why is my Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500 spewing blue or gray exhaust smoke? You could have an oil leak and have a case of burning oil. Looks like it’s time for a professional to take a look. A leak can be caused by a variety of issues including faulty valve seals, blown piston rings, or worn cylinder walls.
  • Who can change the oil on my Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500? Firestone Complete Auto Care performs Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500 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 Sprinter 3500? If you’re overdue for an oil change, it might trigger your Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500 oil change reminder light. If the oil pressure light is illuminated, it could be due to low engine oil, a failing oil pump, a malfunctioning oil pressure sensor, or a clogged oil filter.
  • Should the oil filter be replaced when getting an oil change for my Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500? You should replace your Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500 during each oil change. The filter captures debris and contaminants to help keep your oil clean, which means the filter gets dirty. If you skip replacing the filter, you’ll contaminate your new oil with the dirty filter.
