2015 Mercedes-Benz SL-Class Check Engine Light Codes

Understanding common check engine light codes for a 2015 Mercedes-Benz SL-Class helps owners prioritize repairs. Typical codes include oxygen sensor failures (affecting emissions and fuel economy), misfire codes (which can damage catalytic converters if left unresolved), and fuel system or evaporative emissions codes (which can reduce performance and increase fuel use). Ignoring these codes increases repair costs: a bad oxygen sensor left too long can lead to catalytic converter damage costing thousands, while unaddressed misfires can harm pistons and ignition systems. At Mercedes-Benz of Lynnfield we diagnose codes precisely and discuss the cost-benefit of repair now versus later—our factory-trained technicians use OEM parts and follow Mercedes-Benz procedures to maximize longevity and minimize repeat work. Choosing the dealership often costs less overall than paying repeatedly for partial fixes at independent shops because we fix root causes the first time, provide documented service records, and maintain warranty eligibility.
