Engine transmission fluid is vital to the performance of your vehicle and its efficient fuel consumption.

If your engine is no longer performing and gear changes are harder, you’re receiving all the signals.

It’s time to tune in..

Do you know that your transmission fluid needs changing? And...

If you fail to change your transmission oil when it needs to be changed, not only will it affect the transmission performance but could damage your vehicles engine resulting in an increase in fuel consumption, eventual breakdown and the incurring of major repair costs.

Transmission fluid is vital to the performance of your engine as it acts as both a lubricant and a coolant.

Everyday wear and tear degrades the viscosity of the transmission fluid and when its viscosity degrades it becomes less efficient as a lubricant and coolant.

The frequency with which transmission fluid needs to be changed depends on the driving style and the type of journeys undertaken by the vehicle.

Mercedes-Benz recommends that the Vito and Sprinter have the transmission oil changed at the following points:

All vehicles during their first maintenance service then

Sprinter and Vito with automatic gearboxes every 75,000 miles

All Vito manual gearboxes every 10 years or 187,500 miles whichever comes first

All Sprinter manual gearboxes every 10 years or 200,000 miles whichever comes first

All Vito manual gearboxes where the chassis number begins with the number 638 every 28,000 miles

All Sprinter manual gearboxes where the chassis number begins with the number 638 every 4th service or 56,000 miles

We believe that your transmission fluid requires changing. Act now and book it in today.
