80000 kms service, anything special (expensive) to do ? What about gear box oil ?

hello,

do you know if there is anything special to expect for a 80000 kms service ?
I am wondering about the gear box oil, should it be changed ?
Anything else ?

Thank you.

Have you already had your transmission service completed? If not, you should expect that. Maybe tires and brake pads/rotors as well.

In the UK it's about £200.

in Australia it was around $700-800 for parts (some of them I purchased genuine parts on ebay) and labor. Make sure your dealer drains torque converter per attached WIS.

7G Tronic or 9G Tronic?

chrisdean

7G, you would be wise to ask to see the new parts before the job and the used parts when completed.

Do you think dealers charge you for new parts but don't actually replace the old ones? Sounds a bit paranoid but that's possible.

But can someone explain me how often this service must be done and what do they do exactly ?

thank you again to all and happy new year <3

Every 60,000km but my dealer said every 5 years. I did it at 60,000km (4 years)
They drain old transmission oil, replace parts and oil.

benzw205

ok so it seems that they will have to do it.
do you know if they will automatically change some parts or maybe just oil ?
maybe some parts need to be changed regularly even if they still seem good (but could break anytime soon).
now i am ready for the worst :-)

transmission service includes oil change and parts, so they will change everything.
