Can I service my Mercedes myself? Can anyone change oil in a Mercedes?

Technically, you can service your Mercedes yourself, but it's not recommended for most people. Mercedes vehicles are complex and advanced, and servicing them properly requires specialized tools, equipment, and knowledge. Performing maintenance or repairs incorrectly can cause further damage to the vehicle or even create safety hazards. Additionally, DIY maintenance can void your vehicle's warranty, so it's important to check your owner's manual and warranty information before attempting any repairs or maintenance on your own.

While some routine maintenance tasks, such as checking and refilling fluids, replacing wiper blades, and checking tire pressure, can be done at home with the proper tools and knowledge, more complex maintenance and repairs are best left to trained and certified technicians. Mercedes dealerships and authorized repair shops have trained and certified technicians with the proper tools and equipment to service your vehicle correctly.

As for changing the oil in a Mercedes, it's not recommended for most people to do it themselves. Mercedes engines require a specific type of oil and filter, and not using the right type of oil or filter can cause engine damage. Additionally, some models require specialized tools to remove the oil filter or drain plug, which can make the process more difficult for a DIYer. It's best to have the oil changed by a trained and certified technician to ensure that the correct oil and filter are used and that the oil is changed properly.
