How many liters of transmission fluid are needed for a Mercedes-Benz A160 transmission fluid change?
1 Answers
Mercedes-Benz A160 uses a 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission. When changing the transmission fluid, if manual fluid replacement (gravity drain) is used, approximately 4 to 6 liters are required; if a fluid exchange machine is used, approximately 9 to 12 liters are needed. The methods for changing transmission fluid are as follows: Unscrew the drain plug at the bottom of the transmission to drain the old fluid and then refill. Remove the transmission oil pan directly to drain and refill: This method is more thorough than the previous one, as it removes impurities from the bottom of the oil pan. Use a circulation machine to change automatic transmission fluid: A smart circulation machine can dynamically replace the fluid, filtering and cleaning sludge and impurities inside the automatic transmission. Different vehicle models have different replacement intervals. Below are the recommended intervals for transmission fluid changes: Manual transmission: Manual transmission fluid is generally recommended to be changed every three years or approximately every 100,000 kilometers. Automatic transmission: Automatic transmission fluid is generally recommended to be changed every two years or approximately every 40,000 kilometers. Continuously variable transmission (CVT): CVT fluid is generally recommended to be changed every two years or approximately every 60,000 kilometers.
