Questions About 1989 Mercedes-Benz 190E’s Transmission

  • Is it bad to ride the brakes in your Mercedes-Benz? Riding the brakes or keeping your foot on the brake pedal (even lightly) can lead to transmission issues. Pay attention to how often you apply your brake and use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can I tow in a Mercedes-Benz 190E? Think twice before offering to tow something for a friend, no matter how light the load might seem. Defying your 190E towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.
  • When should I have my 190E's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Maintaining your Mercedes-Benz 190E transmission fluid is one of the best ways to maintain your transmission's health. About every 30,000 to 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your transmission fluid inspected and perhaps changed. Service intervals can vary depending on how you use your Mercedes-Benz, so check with your technician first. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
  • Is it possible for transmission fluid to leak from my Mercedes-Benz 190E? Over time, transmission fluid can leak from your Mercedes-Benz 190E, potentially causing transmission problems.
