How does Mercedes-Benz drivetrain maintenance help save money?

Servicing the drivetrain system can help you save money by saving other parts of your vehicle. A bad drivetrain can put undue stress on other vehicle parts and lead to premature wear and tear.

What are signs my Mercedes-Benz drivetrain is damaged?

Your Mercedes-Benz 190D drivetrain might be damaged if you notice strange noises from the rear of your vehicle, see fluid leaking, or have issues turning.

How often will I need Mercedes-Benz 190D differential service?

Differential service frequency varies from car to car. Double check your owner’s manual and talk with a technician. We generally recommend getting your differential inspected and the differential fluid changed as a part of your regular vehicle maintenance routine since your vehicle cannot function without a differential.

Why is my 190D malfunction indicator light (MIL) on?

Engine problems, transmission problems, faulty sensors, electrical issues, misfire issues, and connector problems could all cause your 190D’s malfunction warning light, or better known as the check engine light, to illuminate.

Can my 190D malfunction warning light be reset at home?

While resetting a malfunction warning light at home is technically possible, doing so is not advisable. The check engine light is typically a sign of a problem in one of your 190D's systems, and simply resetting the light will not address the underlying issue. Instead, you should bring your vehicle to a reliable auto shop to have the underlying problem identified and fixed to help ensure the safety and reliability of your 190D.

Is a drivetrain malfunction in my 190D serious?

Don't ignore a drivetrain malfunction in your 190D. As soon as you notice a problem, have it checked by a professional mechanic to diagnose the issue and carry out any necessary repairs. Driving with a faulty drivetrain is risky and may further damage your 190D.

Does my 190D drivetrain include the transmission?

Yes, the transmission is an essential part of your 190D’s drivetrain. The drivetrain consists of components — like the transmission — that transfer power from the engine to the wheels to move your 190D forward. Other components in the driver train include the axles, differential, and driveshaft.
