Please provide the shop info. The price include differential oil change is great.
Just want to know, the tranny flush is only drain out the old one and replace the new oil right ? its not the power flush with machine ?

Hmmm....for that price, I would rather have the dealership do the job. I paid $450 included taxes for tranny flush and rear diff. service on an CL55 at the Mercedes dealership. And last year, only paid $250 for tranny flush on Clk500 at the same dealership. It Mercedes of Escondido.

They actually gave me a ride home before they started work on my car so I did not witness any of the install but the parts charged to me were 7L of trans fluid@ $18ea.,$13 for the plug, 15.50 for the filter kit and 14.50 for the gasket. I trust they used the paid for parts. Later found out that one of the mechs (owners son, who has a couple of V12benzes) is a friend of a friend.
Also, i'm gonna replace my valve cover gasket soon and was quoted "about $300" by the shop owner. For the 20 minutes I was actually there, everyone was upbeat & enjoyable (save for a salty old man that was just hanging there). I now have 2 tony tiger mechs w/in a 10min radius to answer ALL my MB needs.
P.S. I believe I did not receive any discount due 2 the 2 degrees of sep.
P.P.S I mentioned to the mechs & owner that I would plug them on this forum & we concluded our transaction with genuine handshakes.

AllMercedes in Oakland did this service to my E55 Nov 2010. Price is about the same. Shop location is very convenient for me since I only have to walk 1 block to the BART station to get to my office in SF Financial district.

my friend replaced mine. i was there when he did the passenger side one and it took less than 30 minutes. the driver's side took slightly longer, but i wasn't there for that one. he works at an indy shop, so i'm sure it will take your guys about the same amount of time.

I paid 175 for a 6 liter change at an MB indy shop in chatsworth. If I had known they were only going to change 6 liters, I would have just done it myself. I do it myself now and pay only 65 dollars for materials! It really saves money to DIY
