Questions About 1993 Mercedes-Benz 600SL’s Transmission

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. The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
  • Can my Mercedes-Benz 600SL leak transmission fluid? Over time, transmission fluid can leak from your Mercedes-Benz 600SL, potentially causing transmission problems.
