2024 Mercedes-Benz S580 Transmission Q&A

  • What happens when you "ride" your 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 I tow in a Mercedes-Benz S580? Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how light the load might seem. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your S580’s towing capacity. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.
  • When should I have my S580's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Maintaining your Mercedes-Benz S580 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. Luckily, leaks and low fluid levels are easy to spot and inexpensive to fix.
  • Is it possible for transmission fluid to leak from my Mercedes-Benz S580? Over time, transmission fluid can leak from your Mercedes-Benz S580, potentially causing transmission problems. A transmission fluid leak may be caused by a damaged transmission pan, faulty transmission cooler lines, worn-out seals, a cracked transmission housing, or an overfilled transmission.
  • Who can fix my  Mercedes-Benz S580 transmission leak? Your local Firestone Complete Auto Care can troubleshoot and repair S580 transmission systems. Book an appointment online today.
  • Should I avoid driving my Mercedes-Benz S580 if there is a transmission fluid leak? You should avoid driving with a transmission fluid leak. Your transmission system relies on transmission fluid to operate properly, and a leak may decrease performance, cause your S580 to overheat, or even lead to transmission failure.
