Some items are mileage or time based. So likely to be say for example, 31,000 miles OR 3 years, whichever occurs first.

 

Are you on a service plan.

 

Yes my car was on a Serv plan. Just expired

 

The work is genuine then, as they wouldn’t get paid any more for it.

 

Did they offer you another service plan, mine runs out later this year and wondered if I could renew it.

 

no mention of it

 

Mercedes main dealer service costs are a joke. When my service plan expires, in three years time, the car will no longer be under warranty, so I will be using independent garages instead. Much cheaper and better attention to detail.

 

Had my A200 2019 serviced last week, said i still need to arrange to have my automatic gear box oil change with mercedes, costs £3-£400, wasnt included in full service with cazoo

How often does this need swapping out? Ive read its 10kmiles but also read 40k somewhere online

any help would be greatly appreciated

 

See the attachment in the linked post below. It’s the service items/schedule for the W177, in 2019.

You need to get the latest version of the service schedule, as some items have revised time / mileage service intervals.


But you need to know the exact variant and model of your transmission to determine the oil change interval.

Cant seem to find a definative answer for a W177 A180D Gearbox Oil service schedule anywhere?

 

See post #10

 

I'm pretty sure it's every 3 years or every 60,000 km, whichever comes first.

 

W177, At How many kilometers do we change oil and what kind of oil?

 

See post #10

You need to know the exact model of gearbox/reansmission.

 

And 🤷‍♂️

 

I have a feeling the cut and paste from the translation into English was not anywhere near fully cut.

 

The oil in the gearbox must be changed every 60,000 km or every 3 years, whichever comes first.

 

Helloo,

I can't find any information on when to get the automatic (A200 Petrol W177) gearbox serviced. How often is this done? I went on the mercedes website to look at what work could be booked online, but there was no explicit option regarding transmission or gearbox. In my previous car they had to change the fluid, filter, and some seals.

any insight would be appreciated. 47k miles, approaching 5 years old.
thx

You need to know the exact model of gearbox/reansmission, and check this against the latest version of the service schedule.

 

I just called up mercedes instead, told them my reg for the w177 and the advisor looked on their system and told me the gearbox service for A200 (my reg) is due every 77,500 miles and was about £220.

 

That sounds reasonable for an MB garage and the mileage is much higher than the mileage posted elsewhere for when an oil change is required.

 

Hi, had my car serviced last week at the main dealers, B service, received a phone call a few days later saying they forgot to change the auto transmission oil and filter, so now booked in again in 2 weeks time. Wonder what else they forgot 🤔🙄

 

Yours is not the first example of “forgot” to change gearbox or diff oil / service I’ve heard about on this forum

 

My service last year when the car reached three years old the garage were incorrectly told by the MB system that my gearbox oil did not need changing. After my questioning it due to posts on this forum they found they did need to change it.

 

Hi All, when should I get the transmission service on my A class . It’s done 55k miles. 2018 model.
Many thanks.
