When should I come in for Mercedes-Benz 300E differential service?

What causes a 300E’s malfunction indicator light (MIL) to illuminate?

Is it possible to reset the 300E malfunction warning light on my own?

While it’s sometimes possible to clear a malfunction warning light at home, it’s never recommended.

You should find and address the underlying issue to help keep your vehicle in great shape. By simply resetting the check engine light, you may temporarily get rid of the light, but the underlying problem is still there. It will only be a matter of time before the light comes back.

How serious is a drivetrain malfunction in my 300E?
