What’s the Importance of Your 2019 GLS450’s Transmission?

Your transmission carries power from the engine to the wheels so that you can drive at the speed you desire. Because your transmission is responsible for converting the right amount of power into the right amount of speed, a tiny transmission issue can take a major toll on your car’s performance. They're often easy to notice. Mercedes-Benz GLS450 transmission problems can present themselves as shifting delays, jumping or grinding during acceleration, a feeling of shakiness, or whistling noises and a burning smell coming from under the hood. Let Mercedes-Benz GLS450 transmission problems linger and you might notice your fuel economy decrease or discover that your GLS450’s not even driveable.

2019 Mercedes-Benz GLS450 Questions & Answers

  • Is it bad to ride the brakes in your Mercedes-Benz? 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.
  • What can I tow in a Mercedes-Benz? Think twice before volunteering to tow your friend's moving trailer, no matter how small it is. Defying your GLS450 towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your GLS450 is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • How often does my GLS450 transmission fluid need to be checked? Regularly checking and exchanging your 2019 GLS450’s transmission fluid is one of the best ways to help the transmission system perform. Some technicians would say that between 30,000 and 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your Mercedes-Benz's transmission fluid checked and replaced, but that timeline can vary depending on how your vehicle is used and your manufacturer’s recommendations. The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
  • Can transmission fluid leak from my Mercedes-Benz GLS450? Yes. Mercedes-Benz GLS450 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.
