Questions About 2016 Mercedes-Benz GLC300’s Transmission

  • What happens when you "ride" your Mercedes-Benz's brakes? 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 your friend's moving trailer, no matter how small. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your GLC300’s towing capacity. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your GLC300 is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • Does my GLC300's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Caring for your Mercedes-Benz GLC300’s transmission fluid is a great way to help it perform. 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. The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
  • Is it possible for transmission fluid to leak from my Mercedes-Benz GLC300? Yes. Mercedes-Benz GLC300 transmission fluid can leak as time passes, which may lead to transmission problems. Transmission fluid leaks are often caused by worn or damaged transmission components, such as the transmission pan, cooler lines, seals, or housing. An overfilled transmission may also be behind your transmission fluid leak.

  • Is it okay to drive a GLC300 with a transmission fluid leak? You should avoid driving with a transmission fluid leak.
