Question Transmission fluid change once at 60.000 Km

Good Afternon,

In the ML 350's maintenance manual, the recommendation is that the transmission fluid and filter are changed only once at 60,000 km.

I found the same recommendation on the Fuchs website.

In my car, the exchange took place at 60,000 km and also at 110,000 km. I often travel South America, on roads in good and some very bad conditions.

I would like to know if you do periodic exchanges every 60,000 Km or if you respect the manual, making only one exchange.

Thank's

My opinion, and my opinion only, is that two services are sufficient.
