How does Mercedes-Benz drivetrain maintenance help save money?

Yes, sometimes it can. First, servicing the drivetrain system can help you avoid more significant repairs. It can also somewhat reduce tire wear.

How do I know if my Mercedes-Benz drivetrain is damaged?

Hear noises toward the back of your Mercedes-Benz E320? See fluid leaking? Having issues turning? These could all be signs of drivetrain damage you don't want to ignore. Take action quickly to catch repairs or replacements before something more severe happens.

When should I come in for Mercedes-Benz E320 differential service?

Differential service frequency varies from car to car. Double check your owner’s manual and talk with a technician.

What causes a E320’s malfunction indicator light (MIL) to illuminate?

The malfunction indicator light — also known as the check engine light — on your E320 can illuminate for a variety of reasons, including engine issues, electrical problems, damaged sensors, transmission problems, misfires, and faulty connections.

Can you clear the E320 check engine light on your own?

It may be tempting to reset the malfunction warning light on your E320, but it's important to resist the urge. The check engine light is designed to warn you of potential problems with your vehicle, and resetting the light without fixing the underlying issue could lead to further damage or safety issues. The best course of action is to bring your E320 to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for diagnostics and repairs.

What Does the Drivetrain Do In Your 2000 Mercedes-Benz E320

The drivetrain is responsible for transferring power from your E320's engine to its wheels. It runs the full length of your Mercedes-Benz, from the axles to the transmission. It’s one of your E320’s most complex systems and includes everything after the engine transmission: driveshafts, axles, joints, differentials, and wheels. When you maintain the drivetrain in your 2000 Mercedes-Benz E320, you help maintain your vehicle's power. Follow Mercedes-Benz's recommendations for lubricating bearings/gears and checking/changing differential fluids to minimize repairs over time.

Mercedes-Benz E320 Drivetrain Repairs

Drivetrains for front, rear, and all-wheel-drive and 4WD vehicles are not all the same. You don't want to go to any random shop for drivetrain repair. You want to come see the technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care. We can fix many 2000 Mercedes-Benz E320 drivetrain components including the CV joints, CV axles, and driveshaft. Your Mercedes-Benz could be crying out for driveshaft repair if you notice clunks when shifting, vibration as your vehicle accelerates, resistance when turning, or heavy vibrations in your floorboards. There isn’t necessarily a concrete timeframe for when drivetrain repair will be needed. The system’s parts and pieces don’t have a set expiration date. So much depends on the climate and your driving style. That’s one reason it’s a wise idea to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care at the first sign your Mercedes-Benz E320 doesn’t drive like it used to.

How much does it cost to fix your 2000 Mercedes-Benz E320 drivetrain? Again, it depends! Some more minor differential repairs, like seal or gasket replacement, can lean toward being more affordable. Big repairs, like bearing or gear replacement, can be a little more expensive since the labor is much more intensive.
