Has your transmission ever had the MB recommended routine service (e,g, change the fluid and filter at 40K miles and every 40K miles thereafter)?

I have no idea. I just purchased the car. I love the car I just want it to run correctly. Do you think the transmission needs to be replaced?

Deliver the vehicle to the dealer and ask them to run gearbox diagnostics.
