They're often easy to notice. Mercedes-Benz 400E transmission problems can present themselves as shifting delays, jumping or grinding during acceleration, the car shaking at any speed, or whistling noises and a burning smell coming from under the hood.

Questions About 1992 Mercedes-Benz 400E’s Transmission

  • What happens when you "ride" your Mercedes-Benz's brakes? Riding the brakes (keeping your foot lightly pressed on the brake pedal for a long time) can lead to transmission issues over time. Keep that in mind when driving in hilly terrain and remember to use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can I tow in a Mercedes-Benz 400E? Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how light the load might seem. Defying your 400E towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your 400E is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • How often does my 400E transmission fluid need to be checked? Maintaining your Mercedes-Benz 400E 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.
  • Can my Mercedes-Benz 400E leak transmission fluid? Over time, transmission fluid can leak from your Mercedes-Benz 400E, potentially causing transmission problems. A transmission fluid leak may be caused by a damaged transmission pan, faulty transmission cooler lines, worn-out seals, a cracked transmission housing, or an overfilled transmission.
  • Who does Mercedes-Benz 400E transmission repair? When your 400E transmission is acting up, Firestone Complete Auto Care is here to help. Book an appointment today for transmission system diagnostics and repairs.
  • Is it okay to drive a 400E with a transmission fluid leak? It’s not advisable to drive your 400E if it’s leaking transmission fluid. Your transmission system needs transmission fluid to function properly, and a leak can lead to significant problems, such as overheating or reduced performance. You might even experience transmission failure.
