Question Transmission service cost
I would like to get the transmission fluid and filter changed and figured I would also have the engine oil and filter changed at the same time. A local MB service shop that is NOT a MB dealer said it would be $385 plus tax. I have not checked with an actual MB dealer but I guess it would be a higher price?

That would be te price (or thereabouts) for the tranny flush alone at the dealer.

One caveat...
just in case it's not included in the price, make sure you replace the electrical connector....these things don't re-install well, I always just put a new one on. Adds a few bucks, but soooo aggravating to have it leak.

That is a great deal! My local MB stealer wants $420 for trans, $166 for engine oil and $20 for that transmission electrical part. Think I will stick with my $385 deal.
