In celebration of Car Care Month, our Mercedes-Benz service team is ready to help every driver keep their car running smoothly. But which service tasks should you schedule this month, and which ones might you have forgotten? Courtesy of Mercedes-Benz of Silver Spring, here are the service tasks you need to book this April.
Brake Fluid
While most drivers know to check their brakes frequently, brake fluid inspection sometimes falls by the wayside. We’ll be sure to check your brake fluid levels and ensure that the fluid is free of air bubbles, water, and contaminants.
Air Filters
Over time, your air filters will gather dust and dirt. This means the air entering your engine compartment and cabin won’t be as clean or flow as it should. We’ll replace your air filters if necessary to ensure you only bring in fresh air.
Wheel Alignment
Your wheels must be properly balanced to ensure smooth steering and even tire wear. They can sometimes become misaligned after regular driving, meaning a wheel alignment is in order. Our team will check your vehicle for proper balance and make suspension adjustments as needed.
Battery
Drivers often don’t think about their battery until it causes a problem. Make sure you schedule a load test to ensure your battery is holding a proper charge. You should also check for any corrosion around the terminals and edges.
Spark Plugs
Spark plugs ensure your engine’s peak performance, but they can wear out over time. We recommend checking every spark plug to find and replace any that have loose connections or have become inoperative.
