oil change and trany flush for 2003 e320

local mechanic shop in town is trustworthy and i was wondering if they can change oil and filter and if they use mb fluids would it hurt to flush the trany and chnge its filter; instead of mb dealer as the price is twice as much?

I would not flush the tranny but only change the fluid and filter/gasket.

I would use only MB transmission fluid.

Oil should be 229.51 0w40 Mobile 1 or another meeting the spec

Filter.. Fleece MB only.

Now given this,, it is your decision to let someone else work on the car.
