2013 40k Service

My maintenance book says auto transmission service at 40k (276 engine) - dealer says MB has changed it to 70k - can anyone confirm?

Depends on the transmission

There was a transmission change where it went from 40 to 70, but I would get that in writing from your dealer if they are saying 70.

Give this a quick read. May help explain tranny service

This thread led me to first recognize that the transmission service intervals for the 7G+ (2012 and newer) is at 70,000.

Essentially the 7g+ tranny uses a different fluid that can withstand a longer change interval.
The attachment below is a copy of the dealer service sheet on a 2012 and on page 3 it specified 70,000 miles for engine 276
