Mercedes-Benz Transmission Flush

A transmission flush is usually twice the price of a fluid change due to the sum of time the service takes and the fact that the flush not only replaces the fluid in the pan but also removes fluid from the cooler lines and different parts of your transmission. A Mercedes-Benz transmission flush also uses about 10 quarts of fluid to completely clean and flush out the system.

How do you know if you need a Transmission Fluid Change or Transmission Flush?

A transmission flush is only critical if your system contains dirt or debris. If the fluid is extremely dark or contains extra sediments, we would advise a complete system flush instead of just exchanging the fluid. If you'd like one of our experienced Mercedes-Benz technicians to examine your transmission fluid, book your transmission service online or give Mercedes-Benz of Tampa a call at 8135438419.

Manual transmission fluid or gear oil is thicker due to additives and other compounds main to lubricate the gearbox and other components. Manual transmissions have a higher friction environment due to the way gears are changed, thus the lubricant is other.

Not only are the fluids diverse between manual and automatic transmissions but the level of heat the fluids experience is extraordinarily diverse. Automatic transmissions generate many more heat and thus the fluid in your transmission must be changed more frequently. If you don't change your Mercedes-Benz transmission fluid, your transmission will have broken metal shavings and diverse corrosive material spread throughout the decisive components of your Mercedes-Benz. You should frequently check the fluid levels between your fluid and transmission flush service intervals.
