Questions About 2011 Mercedes-Benz E350’s Transmission

  • Is it bad to ride the brakes in your Mercedes-Benz? Riding the brakes or keeping your foot on the brake pedal (even lightly) can lead to transmission issues. Keep that in mind when driving in hilly terrain and remember to use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can my Mercedes-Benz tow?   Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how small. Defying your E350 towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your E350 is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • When should I have my E350's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Maintaining your Mercedes-Benz E350 transmission fluid is one of the best ways to maintain your transmission's health. 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. Luckily, leaks and low fluid levels are easy to spot and inexpensive to fix.
  • Can my Mercedes-Benz E350 leak transmission fluid? Yes, your Mercedes-Benz E350 can develop a transmission fluid leak. As your E350 ages, parts of the transmission system might wear out or break down, leading to a leak and possible transmission issues. Common causes of transmission fluid leaks include worn seals, a damaged transmission housing, a loose or cracked transmission pan, an overfilled transmission, or faulty transmission lines.
  • Who does Mercedes-Benz E350 transmission repair? Your local Firestone Complete Auto Care can troubleshoot and repair E350 transmission systems. Book an appointment online today.
  • Can I drive my Mercedes-Benz E350 with a transmission fluid leak? Driving with a transmission fluid leak is not recommended.
