1999 Mercedes-Benz E320 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. Remember that when you’re driving down winding roads, and opt for engine braking when possible.
  • How much can I tow in a Mercedes-Benz E320? Think twice before offering to tow something for a friend, no matter how small it is. Defying your E320 towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your E320 is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.

Some technicians would say that between 30,000 and 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your Mercedes-Benz's transmission fluid checked and replaced, but that timeline can vary depending on how your vehicle is used and your manufacturer’s recommendations. Luckily, leaks and low fluid levels are easy to spot and inexpensive to fix.
  • Is it possible for transmission fluid to leak from my Mercedes-Benz E320? Yes. Mercedes-Benz E320 transmission fluid can leak as time passes, which may lead to transmission problems.

An overfilled transmission may also be behind your transmission fluid leak.
