Don’t Treat Your Mercedes-Benz To Any Old Service! | Danbury, CT

  With spring right around the corner, you might be thinking about your spring maintenance to-do list. As a Mercedes-Benz driver, you know your vehicle deserves the best and that might mean that average maintenance just won’t do for your luxury vehicle! So if you want to avoid the DON’Ts and know more about the DOs, then take a peek at our helpful tips below! Don’t forget that the pros here at Mercedes-Benz of Danbury are here for any and all assistance you might need. Don’t have time to service your Mercedes-Benz? Just not a DIYer? No big deal, just schedule a service appointment and we will get your Mercedes-Benz good as new in no time!    It’s all about the high-quality products    You spent your hard-earned money on your vehicle and there is no point in spending that money if you’re just going to clean your vehicle with cheap materials. Your vehicle is of the highest quality and that means your clean supplies should be too. Invest in high-quality cleaning clothes and mitts that are more kind to your vehicle’s exterior paint. Make sure to use products that are specifically made for cars and never use household detergent on your vehicle, because that could easily strip the wax off your vehicle. If you have questions about which products you should be using, give us a call and our helpful staff can help you out!    Invest in an auto detailing clay barEven with a good cleaning, you can still find sticky residue on your vehicle’s exterior, like tree sap and bugs in the spring and summer months. The most important thing is, if you don’t treat these spots correctly, you could damage your exterior. An auto detailing clay bar is the perfect investment for this job. The clay rubs any contaminants off the surface of the car. You simply spray the surface and then rub the clay bar along with the paintwork, where it will pick up anything that sticks out.   Don’t forget to wax on, wax off!Many people take the time to clean their vehicles but then they forget about the wax! This is bad because the wax is used as a protective barrier between the paintwork and any dirt or grime. If you need any suggestions of which wax to use, feel free to give us a call and we can help in any way. Once you apply the wax you’ll need to do so again in 8-12 weeks.   Say NO to automatic car washesAn automatic car wash may seem quick and convenient, but it's unlikely to look after your luxury car. Some car washes may actually damage your car's paintwork, and at a comparably cheap price, they're probably not using products that are good for your luxury vehicle. Washing and detailing your car carefully by hand is always going to give you the best finish and protection.

Visibility could be hindered in the winter month due to frost, ice, snow, and other elements. Making sure your defroster is working, your wiper blades don’t have any cracks or are leaving streaks across your windshield Generally, wiper blades should be replaced every 6 months Don’t forget the windshield wiper fluid! Most vehicles will warn you you’re running low but it is always a good idea to keep it recommended levels Have Your Brakes Checked: It’s no secret your breaks are important, but in the winter months, it’s important they’re in shape to take on the winter weather. Make sure the brake pads/rotors don’t need to be replaced and have the brake line checked as well. Our team is more than qualified to help give you peace of mind and repair any issues we may find Check Your Lights: Your vehicle’s lights tend to be overlooked, but as the days begin to grow darker sooner, your lights become extremely important Think about the last time you changed your headlights and taillights, if you can’t remember, chances are it’s time to change them! If they’re still running smoothly, give them a good cleaning to create better visibility
