Questions About 2009 Mercedes-Benz E550’s Transmission

  • What can I tow in a Mercedes-Benz? Think twice before volunteering to tow your friend's moving trailer, no matter how light the load might seem. Defying your E550 towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.
  • Does my E550's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Caring for your Mercedes-Benz E550’s transmission fluid is a great way to help it perform.
