W222 S63

Transmission Fluid and Filter Schedule

I have a 2014 S63 and the owners maintenance booklet says to replace the fluid in the trans at 60k km or ~40k miles. When I took it to the dealer they pulled up a screen that its 120K or ~80K miles... who is right?

Thank you that is what I gathered from the books. It seems like first service is at 60 then every 120k km after that. Maybe to clear any debris from break in

You were correct, the dealer was puling up the generic W222 S class schedule. Amazing how you need to hound the dealer. If I wasn't such a maintenance psycho I would've left without getting the trans done and risked damaging it. She said "I followed up and your right the AMG wet clutch fluid change is 60K" Oy!!!
