Let the dealer do it. I believe it is a sealed system.

Isn't this like a 4 year service interval?

According service booklet which comes with my 2009 C300, MB now recommends 4yr/40k interval for auto transmission fluid change (on most models).

I wonder how it works if you have a 2008.

Now I remember. They do say like 15 years on the tranny fluid in my book.

Will they honor the old way, or now the new one?
