sealed for life transmissions

Hi, first post and first time Mercedes owner. This forum and others have provided great info on a number of subjects like replacing the MAF sensor to cure hesitation at takeoff and advice on how to change my plugs and wires. Thanks! I've read a bunch on the "sealed for life" transmission but I'd like some current feedback on whether or not to flush and fill. I'm way past the updated guideline to change fluid at 43k and never again. 110k. I'm pretty sure it's never been done. My tranny shows no signs of going bad, and generally speaking I'm a not broke don't fix it guy. But this is something I usually do to my cars. Could I get some feedback from some more experienced MB owners about what to do? 2003 C240 wagon 4matic.

If you are satisfied with the smoothness of the shifting------my advice take the wife out for a hot dog and leave the flushing to plumbers---live long and prosper!
