New to me- 53K miles on a W222- what should I repair, replace or service first?

Hi everyone,

Looking for anybody’s thoughts on what kind of preemptive work or maintenance I should do on a new to me 2019 W222 560 S class to avoid problems, and just to make sure it’s running as best as possible. Any special places where fluid should be changed, any filters that throw up alarm codes at some point, any components that are good to have replaced it around this point to avoid problems in the next 30,000 miles? I remember on the old it was said to replace the oil in the turbo to avoid problems and that was some maintenance that was rarely done. I’m looking for any suggestions or anything I should look for and check right now.

Thank you.

Transmission Fluid Service would be my first thought unless it had been done earlier.

Congrats!

Have the spark plugs been done? If not they were due at 50k miles. I would check to make sure there is no valve cover leak by checking for oil in the spark plug holes.

You could have a dealer pull theVMI (maintenance) report to review any previous dealer-performed maintenance. For me, I’d do every fluid and filter and run a thorough check for any codes.I’d also start using some Red Line fuel system cleaner to keep the injectors clean.
