SLK200 AUTO box question
Evening all - so last weekend I picked up a nice low mileage SLK200 - Cubanite Silver with Chocolate Brown leather interior - fully specced with SATNAV. Phone, Airscarf and only 54K miles.
Everything is good and no issues at all. Straight away I've changed the spark plugs, done the air filter, oil filter and changed the oil.
Im just wondering - does the oil in the gearbox need a change or is it 'lifetime' oil as per my other Mercs? Only reason i ask is that through very light browsing I see people mentioning and Auto Oil & filter service on these SLK's - really???
