Have you replaced your differential oil?
My E320 has 154k miles and it's never been changed. Do many of you change your gear oil? I'm thinking of doing it this week. I changed the oil on my Jeeps front and rear differentials and the transaxle this weekend and I'm thinking of doing my MB as well

Sold 2 of W210 this year, both with 266k miles on each and most likely both with factory differential oil.
I check the level on them and was OK with the old oil.
MB consider it lifetime item, but then -don't think they consider 400,000 miles life those cars can reach.
When you have high-mileage 15 years old car, it is sure good idea to replace the differential oil, but don't split a hair over it.
