Mercedes Automatic Transmission Service
Mercedes Automatic Transmission Service
What's an Automatic Transmission Service?
The automatic transmissions in Mercedes models should be serviced at a maximum of every 120,000km. For Sprinter and Vito vans, this typically aligns with every fourth engine service. For Mercedes cars and SUVs, we carry this out at the nearest log book service.
These services ensure a long life and optimal performance from your transmission.

Common Questions we get asked about the Automatic Transmission Service
Why should I have my Automatic Transmission serviced?
By having your transmission serviced on time and before any poor running symptoms occur, Mercedes owners often see their transmissions reach 500,000km before failure.Â
For transmissions that are showing signs of poor shifting or vibration, you may get a performance improvement with a transmission service. So it’s worth performing a service before considering transmission replacement or rebuild.
What's involved in an Automatic Transmission Service?
Automatic transmission fluid degrades over time due to heat and the filter becomes filled with metal contaminants and solids.
Our transmission services replace the old fluid in the transmission and torque converter, as well as the internal filter and sump seals.
How often should I have my Automatic Transmission serviced?
120,000km is the standard maximum interval between transmission services in Mercedes models. For those with Sprinter and Vito Vans that are heavily loaded, or any vehicle used for towing, should choose to have their transmission service done at 80,000km.
