2005 Mercedes-Benz CL600 Questions & Answers

  • Is it bad to ride the brakes in your Mercedes-Benz? 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.
  • What can I tow in a Mercedes-Benz? Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how small it is. Defying your CL600 towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your CL600 is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • How often does my CL600 transmission fluid need to be checked? Caring for your Mercedes-Benz CL600’s transmission fluid is a great way to help it perform. A general rule of thumb is to have your transmission fluid checked and changed about every 30,000 to 60,000 miles, but that timeline can change if you're hard on your Mercedes-Benz. 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 CL600? Over time, transmission fluid can leak from your Mercedes-Benz CL600, 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.
  • Where can I get my  Mercedes-Benz CL600 transmission fixed? Look to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for CL600 transmission system diagnostics and repairs. Schedule an appointment online today.
  • Can I still drive my Mercedes-Benz CL600 if it has a transmission fluid leak? Driving your CL600 with a transmission fluid leak is highly discouraged. Transmission fluid is vital to the smooth operation of your transmission system, and a leak can put the entire system at risk. A transmission fluid leak may lead to decreased performance, overheating, and possibly even transmission failure.
