fluid changes
I own a 2012 C300 3MATIC with 44K miles. I change oil annually, driving about 5K miles per year. I was recently quoted about $1400 to chanbe the other fluids - ATF. differential, etc. It's my undersanding that it's best to leave the fluids alone, lest the change create issues. True?
Thanks,
Chris.
