What happens if I "ride" my Mercedes-Benz's brakes?

Riding the brakes or keeping your foot on the brake pedal (even lightly) can lead to transmission issues. Pay attention to how often you apply your brake and use engine braking when possible.

How much can my Mercedes-Benz tow?

Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how light the load might seem. The added weight can cause issues with your transmission if your vehicle isn't equipped to handle the load. Check your owner's manual to ensure you have the proper towing setup and aren't going over your towing capacity.

Does my GLE400's transmission fluid need to be inspected?

Maintaining your Mercedes-Benz GLE400 transmission fluid is one of the best ways to maintain your transmission's health.

Luckily, leaks and low fluid levels are easy to spot and inexpensive to fix.
