Questions About 2018 Mercedes-Benz E400’s Transmission

  • What happens if I "ride" my 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. Keep that in mind when driving in hilly terrain and remember to use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can I tow in a Mercedes-Benz E400? Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how small it is. The added weight can cause issues with your transmission if your vehicle isn't equipped to handle the load. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your E400 is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • Does my E400's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Regularly checking and exchanging your 2018 E400’s transmission fluid is one of the best ways to help the transmission system 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. The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
  • Can my Mercedes-Benz E400 leak transmission fluid? Yes. Mercedes-Benz E400 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 can fix my  Mercedes-Benz E400 transmission leak? Look to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for E400 transmission system diagnostics and repairs. Schedule an appointment online today.
  • Should I avoid driving my Mercedes-Benz E400 if there is 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 E400 to overheat, or even lead to transmission failure.
