The drivetrain is responsible for transferring power from your ML320's engine to its wheels. It spans the length of your vehicle, from the transmission to the axles.

When you tune into you 2000 Mercedes-Benz ML320 drivetrain, you help maintain your vehicle’s overall power. Follow Mercedes-Benz's recommendations for lubricating bearings/gears and checking/changing differential fluids to minimize repairs over time.

  •  Can Mercedes-Benz drivetrain maintenance help me save money? Yes, sometimes it can. First, servicing the drivetrain system can help you avoid more significant repairs. It can also somewhat reduce tire wear.
  • How do I know if my Mercedes-Benz drivetrain is damaged? Your Mercedes-Benz ML320 drivetrain might be damaged if you notice strange noises from the rear of your vehicle, see fluid leaking, or have issues turning.

We recommend getting your differential inspected and the differential fluid changed as a part of your regular vehicle maintenance routine. Your vehicle cannot function without a differential. Differential service frequency varies from car to car.
  • Why is the malfunction indicator light (MIL) on in my ML320? The malfunction indicator light — also known as the check engine light — on your ML320 can illuminate for a variety of reasons, including engine issues, electrical problems, damaged sensors, transmission problems, misfires, and faulty connections.
  • Can you reset your ML320’s malfunction warning light at home? While it’s sometimes possible to clear a malfunction warning light at home, it’s never recommended. If your ML320’s check engine light comes on, it’s usually because there is a problem in one of the vehicle’s systems. You should find and address the underlying issue to help keep your vehicle in great shape. By simply resetting the check engine light, you may temporarily get rid of the light, but the underlying problem is still there. It will only be a matter of time before the light comes back.
  • How worried should I be about a drivetrain malfunction in my ML320? Don't ignore a drivetrain malfunction in your ML320.

  • Does my ML320 transmission belong to the drivetrain system? Yes, the drivetrain system in your ML320 includes the transmission.
