"Assyst Plus" displayed in Mercedes-Benz cars refers to the Active Service System, which prompts vehicle owners to schedule maintenance at a Mercedes-Benz service center. Typically, the "Assyst Plus" message appears when the scheduled time or mileage for maintenance has been reached. Regular maintenance should not be overlooked, as it can help detect and address issues that may not be apparent during normal operation, thereby extending the vehicle's lifespan to a certain extent.
Routine maintenance tasks for automobiles primarily include: changing engine oil and filters, replacing air and cabin air filters, regular replacement of brake fluid and transmission fluid, as well as inspecting and replacing worn-out components such as wiper blades, batteries, brake pads, tires, spark plugs, ignition coils, and engine belts in a timely manner.
One essential maintenance task is changing the engine oil. Engine oil, often referred to as the "lifeblood" of the engine, plays a vital role in lubrication, cooling, sealing, rust prevention, and cleaning within the engine. When engine oil is not replaced for an extended period, its lubricating properties decrease, leading to increased wear and tear on internal engine components, potentially causing engine damage or failure, significantly reducing the engine's lifespan.
