2014 Mercedes-Benz SLK55 AMG Questions & Answers

  • 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 my Mercedes-Benz tow?   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 SLK55 AMG’s towing capacity. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your SLK55 AMG is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • When should I have my SLK55 AMG's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Maintaining your Mercedes-Benz SLK55 AMG transmission fluid is one of the best ways to maintain your transmission's health. A general rule of thumb is to have your transmission fluid checked and changed about every 30,000 to 60,000 miles, but that timeline can change if you're hard on your Mercedes-Benz. The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
  • Can Mercedes-Benz SLK55 AMG transmission fluid leak? Yes. Mercedes-Benz SLK55 AMG 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.

  • Should I avoid driving my Mercedes-Benz SLK55 AMG if there is a transmission fluid leak? Driving with a transmission fluid leak is not recommended.
