Differential and transfer case service?
My 2018 GLE43 is at 63k and I’m about to get an oil change and take care of the differential services. An independent shop told me the transfer case is lubricated with the 4matic transmission system and service is not required.
Is this true? Dealer doesn’t seem to know much either…

OK I could be mistaken, the w166 transfer case oil is separate for my ML63, and googling the transfer case part number for the GLE43 I can see a drain plug.. so apologies if I am wrong. Thoughts @chassis ?
