2015 Mercedes-Benz SLK55 AMG 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. Pay attention to how often you apply your brake and use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can I tow in a Mercedes-Benz SLK55 AMG? Think twice before volunteering to tow your friend's 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. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.
  • When should I have my SLK55 AMG's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Regularly checking and exchanging your 2015 SLK55 AMG’s transmission fluid is one of the best ways to help the transmission system perform. 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.
  • Can my Mercedes-Benz SLK55 AMG leak transmission fluid? Over time, transmission fluid can leak from your Mercedes-Benz SLK55 AMG, 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.

  • Can I still drive my Mercedes-Benz SLK55 AMG if it has a transmission fluid leak? You should avoid driving with a transmission fluid leak.
