Questions About 2006 Mercedes-Benz ML350’s Transmission

  • What happens if I "ride" my Mercedes-Benz's brakes? Riding the brakes (keeping your foot lightly pressed on the brake pedal for a long time) can lead to transmission issues over time. 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 a moving trailer, no matter how small it is. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your ML350’s towing capacity. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your ML350 is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • When should I have my ML350's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Maintaining your Mercedes-Benz ML350 transmission fluid is one of the best ways to maintain your transmission's health. About every 30,000 to 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your transmission fluid inspected and perhaps changed. Service intervals can vary depending on how you use your Mercedes-Benz, so check with your technician first. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
  • Can Mercedes-Benz ML350 transmission fluid leak? Yes, your Mercedes-Benz ML350 can develop a transmission fluid leak. As your ML350 ages, parts of the transmission system might wear out or break down, leading to a leak and possible transmission issues.
