Questions About 2021 Mercedes-Benz E450’s Transmission

  • How often does my E450 transmission fluid need to be checked? Regularly checking and exchanging your 2021 E450’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. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
  • Can Mercedes-Benz E450 transmission fluid leak? Over time, transmission fluid can leak from your Mercedes-Benz E450, potentially causing transmission problems.
