11 ML350 Blue
Lifetime Fluid MY @$$
Lots being said about fluids. I looked up the service manual and it shows to replace every: (2011 ML350 Diesel)
Engine Oil - 10,000 miles
Transmission Fluid - 40,000 miles
Brake Fluid - 20,000 miles
Coolant - 150,000 miles
Fuel Filter - 20,000 miles
Air Filter - 40,000 miles
Power Steering Fluid - 10 yrs
HOWEVER I did not see the following:
Differential and Transfer Case Fluid? Nothing in the book.
Also lots being said about oil. Originally it was 5W-40 and since Mobil stopped making it, Mercedes said "Oh well let go to whatever else they have" that being 0W-30. Good idea? Probably not.
Comments on Differential and Transfer case appreciated.
Fun fact - Transfer Case fluid is same as Transmission fluid.
