Your Mercedes was designed and manufactured to very exacting standards. Yet most of the 8 ways to make your vehicle last longer are simple and straightforward, so without further ado, here are the eight ways to make your car last longer:
- Regular Oil Changes:
Following regular oil change schedule is crucial for engine health and its longevity.
- Fluids Checks:
Bring your Mercedes to MB Clinic for regular fluid checks. We will check and top off fluids as needed. Coolant, brake fluid, windshield washer fluid – they all need periodic checks to ensure optimal performance, and to correct any leaks.
- Tire Rotation:
Rotating tires extends tire life and improves overall vehicle handling.
- Maintaining Correct Tire Pressure:
Tires inflated to manufacturer specifications improve fuel economy, suffer less wear and tear, enhance safety and improve ride comfort.
- Regular Filter Change:
Replacing engine air filter and cabin air filter allows for optimal engine performance and cabin air quality – both engines and humans need to breathe clean air.
- Driving Habits:
It’s best to avoid rapid acceleration, repeated rapid braking, and excessive idling – this will minimize wear-and-tear of your Mercedes.
- Regular Washing:
Regular washing removes dirt and grime, which can damage not only paint but other components as well.
- Regular Maintenance and Repairs: When in Doubt, Call MB Clinic.
