What’s the Importance of Your 2021 CLA250’s Transmission?

Your transmission carries power from the engine to the wheels so that you can drive at the speed you desire. Because your transmission is responsible for converting the right amount of power into the right amount of speed, a tiny transmission issue can take a major toll on your car’s performance. They're often easy to notice. Mercedes-Benz CLA250 transmission problems can present themselves as shifting delays, grinding when accelerating, the car shaking on the road, or a burning smell or whistling sounds coming from under the hood. Let Mercedes-Benz CLA250 transmission problems linger and you could see your fuel economy decrease or find that you can't drive your CLA250 at all.

2021 Mercedes-Benz CLA250 Transmission Q&A

  • 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. Pay attention to how often you apply your brake and use engine braking when possible.
  • What can I tow in a Mercedes-Benz? Think twice before offering to tow something for a friend, no matter how small. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your CLA250’s towing capacity. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your CLA250 is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • How often does my CLA250 transmission fluid need to be checked? Caring for your Mercedes-Benz CLA250’s transmission fluid is a great way to help it perform. 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. Luckily, leaks and low fluid levels are easy to spot and inexpensive to fix.
  • Can transmission fluid leak from my Mercedes-Benz CLA250? Yes. Mercedes-Benz CLA250 transmission fluid can leak over time and potentially cause transmission issues. Worn or damaged seals, a loose or damaged transmission pan, a cracked transmission housing, faulty transmission cooler lines, or an overfilled transmission could cause transmission fluid leaks.
  • Who fixes Mercedes-Benz CLA250 transmission leaks? Your local Firestone Complete Auto Care can troubleshoot and repair CLA250 transmission systems. Book an appointment online today.
  • Can I still drive my Mercedes-Benz CLA250 if it has a transmission fluid leak? You should avoid driving with a transmission fluid leak. Your transmission system relies on transmission fluid to operate properly, and a leak may decrease performance, cause your CLA250 to overheat, or even lead to transmission failure.
